Teachers' Day is celebrated in India on September 5 every year. This commemoration marks the birth anniversary of Dr Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan, the second president of our country. Dr Radhakrishnan played a key role in shaping India’s academia and motivated many to stay in schools and seek education. His contributions to this aspect have led to education being accessible to many and this is the reason that Teachers’ Day 2022 will be celebrated on September 5. The key role of a teacher is not just educating the child, but also moulding them into the human beings they are.
