--> Role of the teachers in enhancing Quality Education:

The success of any education system depends on the quality of teachers, which, in turn, depends on the effective teaching / learning process. Teachers’ role is of vital significance for the development of society and appropriate changes in the society. Thus, the quality of higher education depends upon quality of those who impart it. Teachers are the most important components of any educational system. Teachers play most crucial role in the development of the education system as a whole and also in imparting and maintaining the standards of higher education.

Another way teachers can be held accountable is by students achieving passing scores on standardized tests. These test are implemented by the government and teachers are expected to prepare their students for the information that is within these test. In Virginia, SOL is a common term that teachers encounter. The Standards of Learning for Virginia Public Schools describe the commonwealth's expectations for student learning and achievement in grades K-12 in English, mathematics, science, history/social science, technology, the fine arts, foreign language, health and physical education, and driver education (pen.k12.va.us). The SOL’s of Virginia are a prime example of a state required test that students are required to pass. These test reflect both the performance of the students and teachers. Teachers are pressured to teach all of the material that is covered on these standardized test within a limited amount of time. They need to be flexible in their teaching because they need to allow time to cover each required concept and be assured their students have had time to grasp the concept before moving to a new topic. When teachers are evaluated on their students test results a few other factors should be taken into consideration. First, the size of the classroom since there is always a shortage of teachers and second if there are any students with learning disabilities who may perform lower on the test.

How a teacher influences a student and what role they play in the overall personality development of a child. The things a teacher teaches in the classroom should benefit the student in the real world as well. Here enlisted are some essential responsibilities and roles of a teacher in a school:
