Commitment to Students and Student Learning
Students must always be the priority for any teacher. Their personal growth and development as learners must drive all that we do both in and out of the classroom.
Professional Knowledge
Teaching is a rich and robust practice. Teachers must stay current with educational development, curriculum, education psychology, ethical issues, policies and legislation. Teaching is a constant challenge and to be a truly great teacher knowledge of more than just curriculum is required.
Professional Practice
Professional practice begins with teacher's college and continues throughout the career of a teacher. It is essential that teachers continue to develop their own skills by being lifelong learners, reflecting on their practices, and engaging in a variety of learning communities.
Leadership in Learning Communities
Teachers should promote collaboration within their learning communities. Our colleagues are some of the best resources available to us. It is important that teachers work with one another to create a positive environment for the students to thrive.
Ongoing Professional Learning
The field of education is constantly developing and evolving, so too must our teachers. Being part of the field of education means that learning must always go hand in hand with educating. Our students should inform our practice as we learn from them and develop content to better meat their needs in learning the curriculum. Teachers should always be looking for opportunities to grow, develop and learn more themselves.
