National Education Day 2021

-

 National Education Day is observed on November 11 every year, since 2008, to commemorate the birth anniversary of independent India’s first education minister Maulana Abul Kalam Azad. He played a significant role in shaping the education system of the country. 



On National Education Day, India remembers the contributions of Maulana Azad towards nation-building. A freedom fighter, scholar and educationist, Maulana Azad was a key architect of Independent India. He was responsible for setting up top education bodies like the All India Council for Technical Education (AICTE) and the University Grants Commission (UGC).

The first Indian Institute of Technology, IIT Kharagpur, was established by Maulana Abul Kalam Azad.

Apart from IIT Kharagpur, UGC, and AICTE, Maulana Abul Kalam Azad was also responsible for setting up Indian Council for Cultural Relations (ICCR), Sahitya Academy, Lalit Kala Academy, Sangeet Natak Academy and Council of Scientific and Industrial Research (CSIR)

He was posthumously awarded Bharat Ratna, India’s highest civilian award, in 1992.

The Central government in September, 2008 announced November 11 as the National Education Day. The first National Education Day celebrations were inaugurated by then President Pratibha Patil on November 11, 2008 at Vigyan Bhawan, New Delhi.

 This was our final week of Teaching practice Phase 2 Since the lesson plans were almost completed we got plenty of free hours to interact with teachers and students of the school. I carried out interviews for my Project work on these days. On 2/08/2023 I took Remedial classes for students of Class VIII on the topic acceleration, since after conducting the tests, those areas were found out to be difficult for the students. 3/08/2023 was the second last day for our teaching practice. We spend time with students of pre primary section.   4/08/2023 This was the last day of our teaching practice. Government High School Mannanthala will be always cherished in our minds. The students, teachers, and the school atmosphere will always be in our hearts. It was very difficult for us to leave the school, but we look forward for our bright future and thank each and evry individual who supported, guided and stood by us in this amazing journey
