The heavy but glorious responsibility of the teaching profession

Society honors teaching as a special profession. President Ho Chi Minh affirmed: “Without teachers, there is no education. Without education, without cadres, there is no economy or culture.”

On November 20, to celebrate the 70th anniversary of the establishment of the Capital Education and Training sector and the 42nd anniversary of Vietnamese Teachers' Day, Cau Giay Secondary School (Hanoi) held a special ceremony to honor and show gratitude to teachers.

Meritorious Teacher Le Kim Anh, Principal of Cau Giay Secondary School, believes that the teaching profession brings incomparable happiness.The happiness of teachers when they go to school every day is to see the sparkling eyes and bright smiles of their students.The complete happiness is the progress and maturity of their students every day.

“But the happier and more proud we are of our profession, the more we feel the pressures of the teaching profession and are aware of the responsibilities of teachers,” shared Associate Professor Le Kim Anh.

However, in an era where science and technology are developing more strongly, the requirements for the education sector are getting higher. How can students keep up with the trends of the times without being indifferent like machines? The 2024-2025 school year is also the first year that the education sector implements the 2018 General Education Program in all 4 grades and is also the first year that 9th grade students will take the entrance exam for 10th grade high school according to the new program. These are the challenges of the "fire-bearer" who must perfect himself and be a shining example for students.

In recent days, students of Cau Giay Secondary School have been very enthusiastic, lively, and actively participating in meaningful activities to give to their teachers. These are priceless gifts, great motivation to help teachers stay with their profession, love their job more and be proud of their responsibilities.
