Dear teachers! 05.10.2011
Let me extend to you all my sincere congratulations on your professional holiday, World Teachers’ Day!
Teaching is a noble vocation and unique talent. You give your educatees knowledge, you cultivate high moral qualities in them, you teach them honour and dignity, kindness and justice, you help them develop personal qualities, an ability to think creatively and make independent decisions, you open thousands of opportunities for them to choose.
At present education gains a strategic importance and represents a priority in Russia’s state policy. New educational technologies are introduced, education programme is changing as well. But there is one thing that remains without change, it’s the high quality of education in Tatarstan’s education establishments. As you know the society entrusts teachers with the most precious they have, the future of their children, that is the future of Tatarstan.
With all my heart I wish you good health, well-being, happiness and further success in your responsible and hard work. May good luck be always with you and may you be surrounded by beloved people, friends and like-minded persons!
Vladimir Leonov,
Director General of Kazan 2013 Executive Directorate
