Teachers' Professional Ethics and Its' Implications

Abstract

Teachers, as professionals, are engaged in one of the most ethically demanding
jobs, the education of young people; thus it is important that teachers
should constantly reflect on the ethics of their activities to ensure that
they exhibit the best ethical example possible in their work to those
they are morally educating. There is a felt need that teachers as professionals need to conduct themselves befitting the type of profession they practice. This
paper is an attempt to bring to light some of the important aspects of
professional ethics and its implications in the field of teaching that
are essential for the attainment of professional excellence and selfsatisfaction among the teachers and other stakeholders.
