17 Jun 2025National Thank a Teacher Day (OR ANY STAFF AT SCHOOL) is an annual celebration of teachers and support staff across all education settings. This is celebrated on Wednesday 18th June. Teachers play a crucial role in the development and success of students, both academically and personally. Teachers don't just teach content - They encourage curiosity, critical thinking, and creativity. Support staff also play their part by helping shape well rounded individuals in many ways including pastoral support. If you would like to Thank a Teacher (or any other member of staff!) you can do so by visiting https://thankateacher.co.uk/nationalthankateacherday/ where you can send an e card. To all school staff, have a lovely day today. #endeavour #courage #kindness #compassion #dignity #stalbansMums #stalbansparents #stalbansschool #hertfordshireschool #themarlborougscienceacademy #friendsofverulamiumparkssdayRead More »Instagram
