Teachers' Day is the only three professional festivals in China, including Nurses' Day and Journalists' Day. Since 193 1, there have been four kinds of teachers' days with different dates and natures in different historical periods in China.

The earliest Teacher's Day in China history is 193 1 year. At that time, Taitai, Cheng Qibao and other educators gathered in Nanjing Central University and issued a declaration calling for "improving teachers' treatment, ensuring teachers' work and enhancing teachers' self-cultivation", and unanimously agreed that June 6 was Teachers' Day, also known as Double Six Days. Soon after, the Kuomintang government first agreed to designate June 6 as Teacher's Day. In view of the fact that "June 6th" Teacher's Day was set up spontaneously by teachers, it was later changed to August 27th (Confucius' birthday), and the Interim Measures for the Commemoration of Teacher's Day was issued, but it was not implemented nationwide at that time. After the founding of New China, the Central People's Government resumed June 6th as Teachers' Day, and the Ministry of Education informed local educators to organize their own celebrations according to the actual situation. 195 1 year, the national education trade union was established, and educators were recognized as part of the working class. 1951April19, Minister of Education and Chairman of the National Committee of China Education Trade Union made a written statement, announcing that "May 1 International Labor Day" is also Teacher's Day. However, due to the lack of teachers on this day, the implementation result is not ideal. Especially after 1957, under the influence of "Left" thought, teachers were ignored, and Teacher's Day actually did not exist.

On February 9, Professor Wang told the Beijing Evening News reporter. The next day, Beijing Evening News published an article "President Wang Zikun suggested to carry out activities of respecting teachers and valuing morality", which aroused strong response from readers. 65438+February 65438+May, Zhong Jingwen, Qi Gong, Wang Zikun, Tao Dayong, Zhu Zhixian, Huang Ji and Zhao Qinghuan of Beijing Normal University jointly proposed the establishment of Teacher's Day. 1985 65438+1October 2 1 The Ninth Session of the Sixth the National People's Congress Standing Committee (NPCSC) made a resolution to designate September 10 every year as Teacher's Day.
