17th November 2023
1. Read the given scenarios below and indicate whether in each scenario the teacher acted in
a professional manner or not? Give three reasons for each scenario to support your stance.
(44)
Your response should be at most 500 words.
Scenario 1: Mr. Z's Expired SACE Certificate
In this scenario, the teacher did not act in a professional manner.
Reasons:
1) Ethical Responsibility: As a teacher, Mr. Z has a responsibility to maintain his professional
credentials and ensure that he is legally qualified to teach. By attaching an expired SACE
certification to his application and subsequently trying to backdate it, he is acting unethically
and potentially putting his students at risk.
2) Lack of Accountability: Mr. Z had an opportunity to renew his SACE certificate before
applying for the teaching position but failed to do so. This shows a lack of personal
responsibility and neglect for the necessary requirements of the job.
3) Trust and Integrity: By attempting to backdate his SACE certificate, Mr. Z is violating the
trust that the school placed in him when they appointed him. This action displays a lack of
integrity and raises concerns about his honesty and commitment to professional standards.
Scenario 2: Ms. Kijima's Personal Transportation for Students
In this scenario, Ms. Kijima acted in a professional manner.
Reasons:
1) Student Welfare: Ms. Kijima's concern for the welfare of her students is evident in her
willingness to provide personal transportation for them to athletic events. This action goes
beyond the standard responsibilities of a teacher and shows her dedication to supporting her
students' extracurricular activities.
2) Resourcefulness: Recognizing the limited resources of the school, Ms. Kijima takes initiative
by offering her own transportation to ensure that students have the opportunity to
participate in sports. This demonstrates her resourcefulness and commitment to finding
solutions to challenges faced by the school.
