Ethical teaching: Teachers showing true leadership!

Teaching is the specialized application of knowledge, skills and attributes designed to provide unique service to meet the educational needs of the individual and society. The choice of learning activities whereby the goals of education are realised in the school, is the responsibility of the teaching profession.

In addition to providing students with learning opportunities to meet curriculum outcomes, teaching emphasises the development of values and guides students in their social relationships. Teachers employ practices that develop positive self-concept in students. Although the work of teachers typically takes place in a classroom setting, the direct interaction between teacher and student is the single most important element in teaching. The success of students thus, depends on ethical teaching.
