Teaching is a very important profession that shapes the character, caliber and future of an individual. We believe “The reason teachers are awarded among all the jobs around because it is one of noblest profession and one of the most difficult to be a GOOD TEACHER.” Teachers are some of the hardest workers. Not only they have to meet the needs but have to accommodate the learning styles of thirty plus students an hour. There are multitude of other task also. As they care like mother, they spend time with children than most of their parents do. Their job is to teach but many times they go beyond their duty by exceeding their role as a counselor, psychologist, cheer leaders, life coaches and much more.

Their efforts converts the child’s answer from “ I Can’t” to “I can!”

Their moral mission is to help the child and support him to get off from all the hurdles. During our journey of THE OPEN PAGE, we came across many such excellent work carried out by educators in various aspects of the education. These innovators who were working to improve the quality selflessly were not being recognized and encouraged.

In 2014-15, five years back the 1st edition of educator’s award was announced and organized in Ahmedabad. The second award in 2015-16 was organized in Rajkot , third award in 2016-17 was in Surat, fourth award in 2017-18 in Vadodara and in 2018-19 the award function was held in Mehsana.

Aim: To recognize and rejuvenate the noble profession of educators.

Objective:

• To recognize and felicitate the teaching profession.

Being the need of the hour, we began with the noble deed of felicitating this profession. THE OPEN PAGE has organized the award function in five major cities of Gujarat in turns and each city has a host school which took up the responsibility of organizing the event in their premises. This is an opportunity to promote and recognize the importance of educators in the future.

This year the Host School for the award is Kameshwar International School, a well-known education organization of Gandhinagar.

Idea behind the rotation is to make the award popular and invite more and more educators to get nominated and show case their work.The award function will be held in the month of January.
