Ampersand launches #ThankYouTeacher campaign across Hubble Adarsh Schools in Punjab for their efforts during COVID-19: To mark the occasion of Teachers’ Day, Ampersand Group launched a Pan-India campaign as a mark of gratitude to teachers for their contribution in ensuring continuity of education during the COVID-19 pandemic and their role in strengthening ECCE, as envisaged under the new National Education Policy (NEP) implemented by Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
In Punjab, the #ThankYouTeacher campaign was extended around 5000 students from Hubble Adarsh Schools. The campaign entailed students and teachers sharing photos and videos as mark of their gratitude. In addition, a ‘Plant a Tree’ initiative was also held, under which students planted a tree with the name of their teacher on it. Self-shot videos and photographs of drawings, craft, song, poems, and other artistic creations dedicated to their teachers were also shared by students.
Apart for the Hubble Adarsh Schools, the pan-India initiative also included 700 Balwadis under the Municipal Corporation of Greater Mumbai, which achieved a total outreach of 20,000 students and 25 Anganwadis under the Ministry of Women & Child Development (MWCD) in Nashik (in Maharashtra) that was extended to over 600 students.
