THIS IS OUR CODE
This Code has been developed with our profession for our profession. It
reflects the expectations of conduct and integrity that we all share; what we
expect of each other and what our learners, their families and whānau, their
communities and the public can expect of us.
As teachers, we understand the influence we have on
shaping futures, and the contribution we make to society
by supporting children and young people to realise their
potential and prepare them for their future.
We understand that families and whānau and the wider
community trust us to guide their children and young
people on their learning journey and to keep them safe. By
acting with integrity and professionalism in all that we do,
we maintain this trust and confidence.
Upholding the expectations set out in the Code is the
responsibility of each and every one of us. It also connects
us as a profession. If one of us breaches the Code, it can
affect us all, changing how others see us and how the
profession is valued. So we also have a responsibility to each
other, to make sure we all understand these expectations
and make the right decisions each and every day.
We can all be proud to be part of the teaching profession in
Aotearoa New Zealand.
