President Ibrahim Mohamed Solih, on Wednesday, remarked that so much is owed to the selfless hard work of teachers in educating our children.

In a tweet conveying greetings on the occasion of Teachers’ Day celebrated today, President Solih said that the positive impression teachers leave on us is permanent.

The positive impression that teachers leave on us is permanent. We owe so much to their selfless hard work - to educate our children, to guide and prepare them for life,” he added.

“I convey my gratitude and deep appreciation to teachers across Maldives,” he had also said.

Many activities and ceremonies are being held across all schools in the Maldives, to mark Teachers’ Day.

One of the long-standing concerns of teachers in the Maldives was the inadequate salary for the hard work they undertake. Addressing the concern was one of President Solih’s electoral pledges, which has been fulfilled.

With major changes to the salary framework of teachers during this administration, the salaries and allowances of teachers have increased significantly.
