I. INTRODUCTION / RATIONALE

The main purpose of education is to create skills, grasp knowledge and spread
awareness about our glorious national heritage. The values enshrined in our
constitutions lay stress on attaining a basic scientific outlook and commitment to the
ideals of patriotism, democracy, secularism, socialism, and peace. Education should
strive for academic excellence and progress of the arts and sciences in conformity with
our national needs and priorities. For the purpose of this Code, the term “teacher”
covers all school teachers, whether in government/government-aided schools, on a
full-time or part-time basis, at the elementary and secondary levels, and the teachers
holding administrative and supervisory positions. The Code of Professional Ethics for
teachers provides a framework of principles to guide them in discharging their
obligations towards students, parents, colleagues, and the community. Increased
awareness of the ethical principles governing the teaching profession is essential to
ensure “professionalism” among teachers.
 In this era of rapid globalization and modernization, people have become the
victims of materialistic desires and attitudes leading to a loss of basic values. The
same shift is being observed in the teaching community also. As teacher educators
are preparing teachers of tomorrow there is a need for them to demonstrate
professional ethics to inculcate values in the society at large. This code of professional
ethics may be defined as a set of self-imposed professional ideals and principles
necessary for the attainment of professional excellence and self-satisfaction. A code of
professional ethics is generally based on two principles; professional integrity and
ideals of service to society. 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. If teachers are to become ethically aware then the pre-service teacher
