Isn’t it curious that one of the most pivotal professions in our society, that impacts our young people, influences our leaders of tomorrow and affects the way we live our life, rarely receives the respect or acknowledgement it deserves.
你對這個我們社會中最主要的職業(yè)之一不好奇嗎？這種職業(yè)影響著我們的年輕人、未來的領導者以及我們的生活方式，卻極少受到它應得的尊重與感謝。

Teachers and school communities are a vital component to the healthy functioning of our society and yet in the UK, teacher morale is in crisis, external criticism is?rife?and sickness due to stress is exploding.

Tomorrow is the day to appreciate teachers and the extraordinary job they do to teach, support and inspire our children. As you finish this article, raise a glass to the teachers that inspired you. Say thank you to the teachers that made a positive difference in your life.

Teachers are the most valuable resource in education. It’s time to appreciate their value in our society. You cannot put a price on inspiring a child to be the best they can be. Teachers are the unsung heroes of our communities.

Today of all days, let’s acknowledge and celebrate their foundational influence in our lives.
就在今天，讓我們來感謝并贊美老師們對我們的生活最基本的影響。
