International Mother Language Day 2018 celebrated at BDMI


The International Mother Language Day that UNESCO has been celebrating for nearly 20 years with the aim of preserving linguistic diversity and promoting mother tongue-based multilingual education. Linguistic diversity is increasingly threatened as more and more languages fade away. One language disappears on average every two weeks, taking with it an entire cultural and intellectual heritage. The Linguapax Institute, in Barcelona, Spain, aims to preserve and promote linguistic diversity globally. The institute presents the Linguapax Prize on International Mother Language Day each year. The prize is for those who have made outstanding work in linguistic diversity or multilingual education.

21st February was an epoch making event that has been immortalized by Global recognition as declared by UNESCO in 2000 as The International Mother Language Day. The entire state of Bengal celebrates 21st February as the Bangla Bhasha Dibash. Keeping true to the spirit of the state B.D.M. International celebrates this day in all its glory. In lieu of the honour of the day a special assembly was organized. The assembly started with the pledge and the promise orated in the vernacular language. The students presented with an insight on the significance of this Day- how many unnamed martyrs died to make the language see the light of the day. This was followed by various songs and recitation of verses by Tagore and Jibanananda Das. The assembly was concluded by singing of the National Anthem. BDM International is proud to be a part of this movement of survival of the Bangla language which has been ranked as the sweetest language by UNESCO in 2010.

BDM International always starves to provide the best for their students. This is how it works in the best way for them. And that is why the school with a 20 year old legacy is still going strong with its value and vision.

Reopening of School after Pandemic - The Challenge every school is facing

Though the information available is very less, we know that children and adolescents are prone to COVID-19, but in most cases the action of the disease is much milder in these age groups than in adults. These young people can however constitute a link in the transmission chain, although to a lesser extent than adults. So, from here we cannot rule out the idea that schools are places where this disease can be transmitted by teachers, staff and the students themselves. We also know that many infected individuals can be asymptomatic , making it almost impossible to avoid the risk of infection for others coming in contact. It cannot be stopped by simply prohibiting children and staff with flu-like symptoms or fever from attending school. Neither can school attendance be regulated on the basis of an immunological test because of the mediocre reliability of such tests at this time and the large percentage of the population likely to be negative. The virus can spread through the air as far as...
