Mikhail Mishustin's speech:
Dear colleagues, dear friends!
Today we are presenting the Russian Government Prizes in the field of education.
In keeping with a good tradition, we do this on the eve of Teacher's Day, a wonderful professional holiday.
Each of us respects and appreciates the teacher, whose role has always been, of course, special and extremely responsible. Their primary responsibility, as the outstanding educator Konstantin Dmitrievich Ushinsky once said, is to instill in students a sense of intellectual work; it is even more important than the actual teaching of the subject.
A teacher helps shape a child's worldview and moral values, identify their strengths, and, of course, develop their abilities. Teachers are essential and always in demand. And the fact that more and more school graduates are choosing this profession every year, and the enrollment in teacher training colleges is growing, is a good sign.
To support this positive attitude, we are implementing a wide range of measures aimed primarily at ensuring comfortable working conditions. We are actively developing infrastructure – building and renovating schools, modernizing colleges and universities, renovating dormitories, and creating a network of world-class university campuses, allocating significant resources to these goals annually.

Order No. 2618-r of September 22, 2025
The draft federal budget for the next three years, which the Government submitted to the State Duma, allocates approximately 700 billion rubles.
Last year, the Government established five scholarships named after outstanding Russian educators and scientists to support students at pedagogical universities who have distinguished themselves in the field of education.
This year, 50 of them won the competitive selection process and will receive this payment.
It's important that there are more such students. That they remain in the profession and develop pedagogy. And I hope that some of them, like you today, dear friends, will be awarded prestigious prizes.
Our ceremony recognizes the achievements of education professionals, the hard work of our teams of authors, and, of course, the many teachers, educators, and mentors.
This year, the Russian Government awarded prizes to seven significant studies in a wide range of fields. Each of them possesses both scientific merit and high practical significance. These works make a significant contribution to Russian education and will be used by our schoolchildren and students.
First of all, in the field of medicine.
This is a training program for innovative technologies in emergency neurosurgery, which includes effective methods for training specialists of various levels and their acquisition of specific practical skills.
As well as a set of procedures for providing care to patients with wounds in medical facilities during emergency situations. Such training manuals for surgeons are currently unparalleled among medical school educational materials.
The award also recognized the multi-level training system for physicians in in-demand specialties, such as general medicine. It aims to ensure that students gain practical knowledge and competencies sufficient to be fully prepared for professional work.
The nominees also include the authors of an important development designed for children undergoing long-term treatment and who, due to health reasons, cannot attend educational institutions.
The hospital school model is truly unique. It allows students to acquire all the necessary knowledge continuously. It has already been implemented. 72 such schools operate in medical organizations in more than 40 Russian regions. Over 30,000 children study there annually. I would like to emphasize that thanks to these efforts, high-quality education is accessible to them regardless of their life situation.
The award also went to the authors of educational kits that help students master essential subjects such as computer science, biology, and mathematics, develop analytical and synthesis skills, critical thinking, and select and organize materials on a specific topic. They also prepare students for academic competitions and research, and foster interest in their future professions.
We are a very large, multi-ethnic country with unique languages and distinctive cultures. And efforts aimed at preserving our country's cultural diversity are, of course, of great importance. Like the Chechen language textbook presented today. Such educational materials contribute to strengthening the unity of our peoples and passing on traditions and values to new generations.
All of you and your colleagues are advancing pedagogical science with a caring and respectful attitude toward the achievements of your predecessors. And here I would like to emphasize the special role of the Russian Academy of Education, noting the support it provides to educators in their scientific research and the implementation of their ideas.
Dear friends!
Today, I am also very pleased to present a letter of gratitude from the Government of the Russian Federation for exceptional achievements and long-term productive work to a history and social studies teacher from the Altai Krai; a chemistry and biology teacher from the village of Smidovich in the Jewish Autonomous Region; and a mathematics teacher who works at a school in Ilovaisk, Donetsk People's Republic; and to French and English teachers at a school in Chita and a physical education teacher at a lyceum in St. Petersburg.
You've been working for many years in your calling, teaching children, and educating them to be honest, decent, and worthy people who love their country and defend its interests. Some of your students have been awarded the title of Hero of Russia. Their schools are named in their honor.
The President declared this year the Year of Defenders of the Fatherland. This is a tribute of respect and gratitude to those who fight for the well-being of their country and gave their lives for it.
The government will continue to support participants in the special military operation and their families. It will help their children obtain education at the country's higher education institutions. It will allocate special quotas for this purpose.
It is our duty to the children of our defenders. And we are obligated to provide them with the necessary conditions for a dignified future.
Once again, I congratulate you all on receiving the award and the upcoming holiday. I thank you for all you do. And I wish you continued professional success and the best of health.
Let's get started with the award ceremony.
