SUMMARY:Educational Support Staff Day
DESCRIPTION:





Educational Support Staff Day, also known as Education Support Personnel (ESP) Day, is celebrated annually on May 16th. This day recognises and celebrates the vital contributions of educational support staff, including school nurses, bus drivers, teaching assistants, and other professionals who work in schools. Education International introduced this day on May 16th, 2018, to highlight the importance of ESP in creating equitable and inclusive education systems. 



 






On this day, schools and organizations often organise events, share social media posts, and send thank you messages to recognize the hard work and dedication of educational support staff. These staff members play a crucial role in supporting students, teachers, and families within the school community.
