Teachers' Day is celebrated annually on September 5 in India to commemorate the birthday of Dr. Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan, the country's first Vice President and former President, scholar, philosopher, and Bharat Ratna awardee, who was born on this day in 1888. He wanted the quality of education should be improved and a strong relationship should be developed between the teacher, students, and the way they are taught. According to him the teacher should gain the affection of pupils and respect for the teachers cannot be ordered but it should be earned.

Therefore, Teachers are the cornerstones of our future and act as a foundation for creating responsible citizens and good human beings. This day is celebrated at DAV Model School, IIT Kharagpur by empowering Head Boy and Head Girl to lead the morning assembly with a short programme. Students of class XII took classes from LKG –XI as Student-Teachers up to 1st four periods.
