The present study is about the perception of teachers as perceived by stake holders namely students, parents and administrators. Teachers are an important asset and tool in the society. Teaching is therefore the core profession, the key agent of change in today’s knowledge society. Teachers occupy a multifaceted role within society, embodying diverse responsibilities that resonate with various stakeholders. Teachers are essential members of society, playing a multitude of roles that extend far beyond the classroom. The data provided offers a comprehensive insight into the teacher-student dynamic and perceptions within educational contexts. Across various dimensions, including mentoring, role modeling, social leadership, and academic counseling, teachers emerge as pivotal figures in students' academic and personal development. Teachers also exhibit a strong self-perception as social leaders, viewing themselves as such to some degree, indicating their awareness of their potential to shape students' social development. Additionally, teachers serve as primary sources of academic counseling for most students, relying on them always or often, emphasizing the need to equip teachers with the necessary skills and resources for effective student support. The research underscores the importance of supporting and empowering teachers to maximize their impact on student success and holistic development. Investing in teacher mentoring programs, promoting positive student-teacher relationships, and facilitating open communication are crucial steps toward creating an educational environment where all students feel supported, empowered, and equipped to thrive academically and personally.
