Abstract: – Much has been researched and anticipated on contribution of teachers in the education sector. With global challenges and opportunities influencing the setting of concerns and expectations from the teachers, it becomes a matter of immense importance to establish quality processes that are sensitive enough to capture the dynamism inherent. The concept of teacher’s role is usually interpreted and understood based on experts’ opinion, how so ever, as the children occupy the key focus in today’s learner centric approach of education system, in the present study efforts were taken to understand the conceptions of children about their teachers and the importance of role they played in their lives. It is believed that the an inquiry into the conceptions of children would provide the fundamentals for uncovering the question, what are the concerns and expectations from the teachers of today’s age? The interpreted information would provide a useful missing link to better understand, not only the current realities of classroom but also help defining appropriate framework for teacher training and education required to meet the the global standards for assuring quality learning outcomes. For the present study, children from schools with four different school governance, namely; Central government, State government, Private unaided school and International school were considered.
Key words: conceptions of children, teachers’ role in global challenges and opportunities, progressive milestones for teacher’s achievement
