The participation of the Head of State in it makes the event more significant. The President is sure: everyone needs this meeting today! Time presents educators with challenges that are unprecedented in their severity. This is both the pandemic, which has forced us to quickly adapt the educational process, and the hot political events of the past year. They also tested the strength of the teachers! Teachers' role in the fate of the people and their country has increased many times over. Alexander Lukashenko has stated that during the conversation with teachers who represent all regions of Belarus.

The President is convinced: there is a real struggle for values in the modern world! The Belarusians have managed to preserve a lot: the classical education system, equal access to knowledge, guaranteed jobs. All this is enshrined in legislation. Today, issues related to ensuring national security arise! The educational role of the school is difficult to overestimate here.

Everyone is responsible for the mental development of our children, emphasizes the President. About a thousand teachers took part in today's Council. Many have joined the discussion of the educational agenda online.
