Jayasundhar gets national award
Imparting science education to rural students in government schools is the most ennobling aspect of the profession, says Jayasundhar V., a science teacher in the Government Middle School in Manapet, who is among the recipients of the National Awards to Teachers, 2021. Mr. Jayasundhar, who figured in the list of 44 awardees released by the Ministry of Education on Wednesday, bagged the honour from a short list of 155 applicants from across the country. The teacher says the inspiration to turn to teaching as well as a strong service orientation came from his father, a Tamil teacher at Jeevanandam Higher Secondary School, who regarded teaching as a Godly endeavour where the number of hours you put in or the salary you get were irrelevant.More Related News
