NATIONAL TEACHERS' DAY CAMPAIGN

Tabled by Baroness Burt of Solihull (Liberal Democrat) 17 signatures

The motion

That this House celebrates the tremendous work that teachers do; recognises that without teachers the country's potential can never be realised; appreciates the dedication that teachers show in imparting knowledge, wisdom and values to children; regrets the lack of recognition that teachers often receive, suffering insolence and even abuse instead of the appreciation they deserve; and calls on the Government to introduce a national teachers' day to recognise the invaluable work they do in creating caring and capable citizens of the future.
