4A teacher's gift: what you should know
- Georgia marks International Teachers' Day on 5 October and the national one on 27 October, Iakob Gogebashvili's birthday.
- The teachers' code of ethics says nothing about gifts, but some school directors forbid accepting gifts or money, so check your school's rule before you buy.
- From the class, one good-quality keepsake beats several small things, and the collection should be voluntary and quiet so nobody has to say no in the chat.
- Avoid alcohol, perfume, cosmetics, jewellery, clothes that need a size, and an expensive gift from a single family, which makes the teacher uncomfortable.
Parents' questions about a teacher's gift
What should we give a teacher?
From your child, a small desk item works best, with a card in the child's own hand. From the class, one gift the teacher will keep. Flowers and sweets suit both, and a teacher of Georgian will like a Georgian alphabet motif.
What should we give a teacher on 8 March?
On 8 March, flowers or chocolate are the classic choice for a woman teacher, especially a potted plant that lasts long on the classroom windowsill. A scarf with a Georgian design also works. Women's Day gifts
What should we give a colleague when we pool the money?
As with a class gift, use the pooled money for one lasting, good-quality item instead of many small ones, something they will put on their desk or keep for years. Gifts for a colleague
