The campaign consisted of a special video launched on Beaconhouse’s social media platforms that showcased the everyday moments and challenges of teachers while they embark on their mission of creating change through learning. The campaign also invited everyone from students to their parents and Beaconhouse alumni to share a memory or a picture of their favorite teacher with the hashtag #ThankYouTeacher. Beaconhouse Group is proud to be the largest employer within the country’s private education sector employing more than 8,500 teachers.
“Teachers are the real heroes who guide and inspire their students to overcome their learning challenges and embrace a brighter future. On International Teacher’s Day, we pay a special tribute to all the teachers and educators throughout Pakistan and around the world without whom all innovation and progress will cease to exist. I humbly thank them for their tireless efforts for shaping a better future for all.”
While speaking about the occasion, Kasim Kasuri, CEO, Beaconhouse said
The current pandemic was the most threatening phenomenon for teachers that challenged traditional education practices across the globe. However, Beaconhouse was able to ensure learning continuity during this difficult time by empowering its teachers to embrace new teaching methods and help the students to continue with uninterrupted learning. Beaconhouse teachers, including from Beaconhouse School System and The Educators among others, focused on achieving learning milestones instead of delivering content and used a combination of in-person and digital means to deliver lessons. These innovative teaching methods were able to effectively foster creative thinking, communication, and collaboration and instilled a love for learning amongst students.
