"We have learned our lessons. The events that occurred predetermined the importance of the issues that we want to discuss at the pedagogical conference. We have to reset the education system. Today it is a matter of national importance," the head of state emphasized.
The president recalled the ancient wisdom: After bread, education is the first need of the people. “The role of the family is important. But we understand well that it is the educator and teacher who stand at the origins of the formation of the people as a single nation. Science calls this the national identity. Simply out, this is patriotism," the president said.
He noted that this concept embraces many meanings: love for the Motherland, respect for the achievements of the past, adherence to traditions, reverence for older generations and pride in the successes of contemporaries, the desire to contribute to the history of the country.
