Friday marks Teachers' Day in China. As a reminderthat teachers should be honored for bringing knowledge and moralsto students, it inheritsthe thousand-year tradition of respecting teachers in China.
The proposal of Teachers' Day was passed in 1985 at the 9th meeting of the 6th standing committeeof the National People's Congress.
On September 10th, 1985, a grand gathering to celebrate the festival dedicated to teachers was held at Beijing Normal University.

盘点世界各地教师节:
我国的教师节定在了9月10日,那么世界其它国家有教师节吗?又是如何庆祝的呢?来看看下面的介绍吧。
Teachers Day is, interestingly, not observed on the same day all over the world. It is perhaps one of those few days which has a separate international day whose importance is superseded by the nationally observed day.
非常有意思,在世界范围内,教师节并不是同一天。它是广受国际重视的日子,跟其他的国际节日一样,只不过是在不同的日子里来纪念罢了。
Taking a look at Teachers Day as it is celebrated across the world, in some countries it is marked by a holiday, in others it is a working day.
在世界范围内来审视教师节,一些国家把它作为一个节日,而另一些国家就是一个普通的工作日。
International Teachers Day as observed by UNESCO is October 5. Being held ever since 1994, it commemorates teachers' organisations worldwide. Its aim is to mobilise support for teachers and to ensure that the needs of future generations will continue to be met by teachers.
世界教科文组织以10月5日为国际教师节。自1994年以来,都用于纪念世界范围内的教师组织。目的是为教师们争取支持,并确保未来孩子的需要能得到满足。
China -Teachers Day was founded at the National Central University in 1931. It was adopted by the central government of the Republic of China, in 1932. In 1939, the day was set for August 27, Confucius' birthday. The People's Republic of China government abrogated it in 1951. It was reestablished in 1985, and the day was changed to September 10. Now more and more people are trying to revert the day back to Confucius's birthday.
中国――教师节是1931年由国立中央大学设立的,1932年由中华民国中心政府采用。1939年,又把教师节定位8月27日,也就是孔子的生日。1951年中华人民共和国废除了这一规定。1985年又重新设定教师节为每年的9月10日。现在越来越多的人希望将教师节改为孔子诞辰日。
India- Teachers Day is celebrated on September 5 in honour of Dr Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan, the second president of India, whose birthday falls that day.
