"The Year of Teacher and Mentor announced by the President of Russia is coming to an end. During this time, we have held about seven thousand federal and regional events aimed at raising the prestige of the teaching profession. More than 17 million people took part in them. Moreover, we have identified the key directions and vectors of our development, so next year we will continue the projects we have initiated. I wish you, teachers, dear colleagues, creative success, thank you for your work. There is nothing more important than the education system. You are the backbone of the country. For this we love you very much, and we will do our best to support your work and your choice", — said Tatyana Golikova.
Russian Minister of Education Sergey Kravtsov pointed out that during the Year of Teacher and Mentor many projects aimed at supporting teachers and raising the prestige of this profession were implemented. Among them are contests, forums, changes in legislation.
"I would like to specifically express my gratitude to the President of our country, who pays the closest attention to the education system, to the Government of the Russian Federation, to the agencies that helped us, to the governors who introduced more than 470 measures of social security support for teachers for a total of 53 billion rubles this year. Dear teachers, it is very important for us to hear feedback from you. We will do everything we can to continue to help you, to develop the education system. Because you are the future of our country, because the teacher is the most important profession. Dear friends, I address you words of sincere gratitude", — said Sergey Kravtsov.
Russia has a unique three-stage system of creative education, said Minister of Culture Olga Lyubimova.
"This is the feeling of a master who is crowded by students when we announce who is recruiting this year. This is an event in the art world not only in our country", — Olga Lyubimova said.
She said that 13 new films will be shot on the subject of pedagogy and mentoring. Separately, the Minister of Culture thanked teachers for organizing trips around the country, which introduce schoolchildren to the wealth of the country.
This year has set a trend for mentoring and brought people closer to making it a conscious part of every Russian citizen, said Ksenia Razuvaeva, head of the Federal Agency for Youth Affairs.
"Mentoring is the basis for working with young people. As the President said at the State Council meeting, education is possible only by personal example. And this example is you", — Ksenia Razuvaeva noted, addressing the teachers.
