The education system can excel with its effective measures only by the effective performance of teachers. If the teachers are inefficient and indifferent, no educational institution even with an excellent infrastructure and a good curriculum can achieve its goal. Teachers not only inculcate the various subjects of study into students but they also mould a quality generation for the nation. According to the American Commission on Teacher Education (1974), “The quality of a nation depends upon the quality of its citizens and the quality of its citizens depends upon the quality of their teachers”.

Our former president and eminent educationist Dr S. Radhakrishnan says, “Teachers’ place in society is of vital importance.
