193 1 year, educators Tai and Cheng Qibao contacted educators from Beijing and Shanghai, gathered at Nanjing Central University, issued a declaration, demanding "improving teachers' treatment, ensuring teachers' work and improving teachers' cultivation", and agreed to designate June 6 as Teachers' Day, also known as Double Six Days. This Teacher's Day was not recognized by the Kuomintang government at that time, but it had a certain influence throughout China.

1939 The Kuomintang government decided to designate August 27th, the birthday of Confucius, as Teacher's Day, and promulgated the Interim Measures for the Commemoration of Teacher's Day, 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.

Date dispute:

Since 2004, Li, a humanist, has repeatedly called for Confucius' birthday as Teacher's Day by way of proposal. He believes that the newly set festival is chosen by modern people themselves, so it is necessary to consider whether this day has historical and cultural connotations and how to continue historical traditions.

Teachers' Day should be a festival with rich cultural connotation and should continue the long historical tradition. It is very appropriate to regard Confucius' birthday as Teacher's Day in China. According to the authoritative research, Confucius was born on September 28th, 55 1 year BC (Gregorian calendar), which is also appropriate: the busyness at the beginning of the new school year has passed, so we can have time to organize Teachers' Day and National Day.
