Tweeps celebrate #WorldTeachersDay
According to a recent paper, jointly released by the UNESCO Institute for Statistics (UIS) and the Education for All Global Monitoring Report on World Teacher’s Day shows that more than 27 million teachers will be needed to achieve universal primary education by 2030. Today, at least 93 countries have an acute shortage of teachers. According to UIS projections, 28 (or 30%) of these countries will still not have enough teachers in classrooms by 2030. October 5 was celebrated as World Teacher’s day. People used social media to thank teachers.
