Abstract

In India, primary school teachers play an important role in the development of students. According to Bureau of Labor Statistics, primary school teachers are often the sole source of students learning experience. Education plays a very important and significant role not only in the protection of child rights but also the basic human rights which are universal in nature. Children are particularly vulnerable and so they also have particular rights that recognize their special needs for protection. Child rights are considered to be those issues, in a world full of conflict and economic, social, intellectual and violent confrontations, on which we have achieved some consensus. Among the greatest of all services, the education and training given to the child is considered to render service to the Almighty. The teachers are considered to be the students’ third parent and they do the service with planning and proper execution of lessons. This paper presents the role of teachers in promoting human rights education.
