As the world celebrates World Teachers' Day on October 5th, it's time to shift the spotlight from appreciation to action. In today's rapidly evolving digital landscape, teachers face unprecedented challenges and opportunities in preparing students for a future shaped by technology. To meet this moment, we must invest in the people at the heart of education, the teachers.
Empowering teachers with cutting-edge digital literacy, ongoing professional development, and strategic support is no longer optional, it's essential. This means rethinking curriculum design, aligning policy with innovation, and building systems that nurture continuous growth.
“On this global day when teachers are recognised, we reaffirm our commitment, to equip every teacher not just to adapt, but to lead in the digital-first classroom. Empowering teachers to thrive, ensures that students are able to soar,” says Dr Michael Naidoo, School Manager of the MANCOSA School of Education (SOE).
