World Teachers’ Day on the 5th October celebrated teachers across the globe. In face of a global pandemic, it feels more crucial than ever to reach out and thank our teachers. 2020 has been a challenge for all, with teachers our unsung heroes. Having shown bounds of resilience and strength in supporting children, students, parents and each other throughout a turbulent year, the UNESCO World Teachers Day theme this year is suitably named, Leading in Crisis: Reimagining the Future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

World Teachers’ Day is a moment to acknowledge the amazing job that teachers do in shaping and enriching lives and also to recognise and address remaining challenges in education.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

International School Teachers and World Teachers’ Day<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

There’s in excess of 10,000 international schools around the world and the number of schools, teachers and students continue to grow. International school jobs remains in demand, so high-quality teachers are as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

International school teachers offer more than academic achievement, equipping students with a global mindset, and as ISC research aptly puts it “prepares students as independent, collaborative, creative, internationally-minded learners who can succeed throughout university and in the workplace.”<\/em> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is the quality of international teachers which shape such characters so let’s take some time to appreciate all they do! We are lucky to partner with the best schools around the world. Our social media was awash with thanks and appreciation on World Teachers’ Day from many of the great schools we partner with. Enjoy the gratitude with us by scrolling down and seeing some highlights!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

YCIS-B knows just the way to celebrate teachers\u2014through food! In previous years they have held teacher appreciation lunches and breakfasts. While 2020 is different due to restrictions, their teachers are not forgotten and this year their Parent Organization, a voluntary group of parents supporting and appreciating all that teachers do, treated the teachers and staff to multicoured cupcakes along with hot beverages.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In previous years, one of our most popular events is the annual Teacher Appreciation Lunch. I space to thank teachers for their dedication and hard work throughout the year. They got the students on board creating cards to show their gratitude and love to the teachers. See the video below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
