ISLAMABAD (Dunya News) - World Teachers Day is being observed today (Saturday) across the world with focus on the theme "Valuing teacher voices: Towards a new social contract for education." 

This year's celebrations will emphasise the pivotal role that teachers play in shaping the future of education and the urgent need to incorporate their perspectives into educational policy and decision-making processes. 

The day is celebrated every year on Oct 5 to pay tribute and highlight the importance of teachers in a society. Events will be held to mark the day. 

Considered a spiritual father, a teacher plays an important part in nourishing a child’s brain. 

Where parents are responsible for the upbringing of children, teachers play a vital role in helping them use their knowledge and apply it to become valuable citizens of society.
