It is not illegal to receive gifts on Teachers' Day. Whether teachers accept gifts from parents is a bribe depends on whether they help parents seek benefits after accepting gifts. If only parents want to please the class teacher, it is not a bribe, but an illegal act. According to the law, teachers must be honest and clean, and may not take advantage of their positions for personal gain. It is actually a good intention not to advocate or encourage the collection of flowers on Teachers' Day, in order to correct unhealthy trends.

The Ministry of Education has put forward clear requirements for local education departments and schools to implement the regulations.

First, we should attach great importance to it, strengthen leadership, make careful arrangements, study and formulate specific implementation plans and supporting measures, establish and improve the leadership responsibility system and working mechanism, so as to make unremitting efforts and sound the alarm bell, and carry out in-depth and lasting construction of teachers' morality and style.

The second is to intensify publicity and education, quickly convey the requirements of the Regulations to faculty, students and parents, intensify the propaganda of advanced typical teachers' ethics, vigorously promote the culture of clean government into campus activities, and advocate students and parents to express their gratitude and gratitude to teachers in a civilized and healthy way.

Third, it is necessary to seize important holidays and time periods, especially teachers' day and important nodes such as school opening and student graduation, and carry out special governance in a targeted manner. The education discipline inspection and supervision departments should strengthen the supervision and inspection of the implementation of the Regulations, ensure that all complaints must be investigated, all mistakes must be corrected, and resolutely investigate and deal with violations of discipline and discipline.

The Ministry of Education requires local education departments and schools to open reporting channels and consciously accept social supervision.
