CELEBRATING WORLD TEACHER’S DAY 2024
On this special day dedicated to recognizing the role and work of teachers, I express sincere gratitude and thanks to our teachers who have helped in shaping our society and preparing future generations for the role they will play in taking our society forward.

In 1994, UNESCO proclaimed 5 October to be World Teachers’ Day at a special intergovernmental conference in Paris that adopted the UNESCO/ILO recommendation on the rights and responsibilities of teachers, and established international standards for teachers. The intention was to promote the status of teachers in the interest of quality education.

This year’s theme is “Valuing teacher voices: Towards a new social contract for education.” The focus is on the crucial role of teachers in shaping education’s future and the need for their input in policy decisions.

Teaching can be a stressful undertaking. That is why we must be grateful for the individual efforts of teachers and also partner with them for a holistic approach to education that includes the classroom, the home and the community.

Let us continue to explore diverse ways to educate our children, and ways to support our teachers as they rise to confront daily challenges. #WorldTeachersDay #teachers #uppliftteachers #uppliftourcommunity #SMSstrong #ProtectOurYouth #PeopleFirst
