Strategy
The Teacher Prize envisions to celebrate the efforts
of our teachers in the new normal. This marks the beginning
of a new culture to recognize and reward the
pillars of our future nation.
It seeks to acknowledge the impact of our teachers on our students and their
future. It's time to introspect by asking the following questions.
Are teachers respected in relation to other professionals?
Would parents encourage their children to be teachers?
Why Now?
Teachers work tirelessly to provide an education for children in these changing times. Teachers struggle to cope up with their daily lives yet achieve unbelivable outcomes set forth by the New Education Policy 2020 and Online Learning. We have to be thankful to the true spirit of hard work of our teachers. They ensure that our kids learn their lessons, daily. The nation salutes our unsung heroes during the Panademic.
The Silent Heroes! The true Warriors!
