Teachers in Osun State have been urged to reflect on things that will make their job better for the ultimate good of their students.
This is just as the state government promised to continue to do what it takes to improve the welfare of the teachers for the overall advancement of the state’s education sector.
Commissioner for Education, Folorunsho Oladoyin disclosed this on Tuesday in a statement to congratulate Osun teachers on the occasion of the World Teacher’s Day with the theme, “Teachers At The Heart Of Education Recovery”.
While expressing gratitude to the teachers for their commitment and cooperation with the present administration in the move to reposition the state’s education sector for better results, Oladoyin said the Gboyega Oyetola led administration will never joke with their welfare.
He advanced that the year’s theme is very apt because the present government recognises teachers as major partners and stakeholders in the quest to revamp the state’s education sector and give Osun pupils quality and qualitative education to guarantee a better future for the state.
The statement reads in part, “On behalf of Governor Oyetola, I congratulate Osun teachers on the occasion of the World Teachers Day celebration. Our teachers are very important and key in our resolve to reposition our education sector for better results.
“We can not do anything without you, your cooperation and support, since the inception of the present administration, especially in the education sector has been of immense benefit and assistance to us.
“Our teachers in Osun have shown an uncommon zeal and passion towards helping the state government to build a good future for our state through the younger ones who we are nurturing to become better individuals that we can rely on,” he concluded.
