, Fostering Accountability and Professionalism in South African School Teachers
Introduction:
In South African schools, the issue of unprofessional behavior among teachers has become a
pressing concern. Instances of absenteeism, failure to honor teaching periods, and other
forms of unprofessional conduct have been observed, impacting the quality of education
and overall school environment. As a principal, it is crucial to develop a strategy that instills
values of accountability and professionalism in teachers. This essay aims to explore the
various types of unprofessional behavior in schools, followed by the presentation of a
comprehensive strategy to address these issues.
Types of Unprofessional Behaviours Experienced in Schools:
In South African schools, unprofessional behaviours among teachers can manifest in various
ways, negatively impacting the learning environment and students' educational experiences.
The following are some of the different types of unprofessional behaviours experienced in
schools:
Firstly, Absenteeism - Teachers frequently being absent from their assigned classes without
valid reasons or proper notification can disrupt the continuity of learning (Higgs & Smith,
2016). Absenteeism hampers students' progress and causes frustration among both
students and parents.
Secondly, Failure to Honor Teaching Periods - Teachers not adhering to the allocated time
for lessons, arriving late, or ending classes early can disrupt the school's schedule. This
behavior affects the overall discipline and structure of the school and may result in students
missing out on important learning opportunities.
Additionally, Failure to Prepare and Plan - Teachers who are inadequately prepared for
their lessons can lead to disorganized and ineffective classroom sessions. This behavior
diminishes students' confidence in their teachers' abilities and reduces their motivation to
learn.
Thirdly, Neglecting Teaching Responsibilities - Some teachers may neglect their
responsibilities by not adequately preparing for lessons, not covering the syllabus
comprehensively, or failing to provide timely feedback on assignments and assessments.
This behavior hinders students' academic progress and compromises the quality of
education they receive.
Fourthly, Inappropriate Behavior - Instances of inappropriate behavior, such as using
disrespectful language towards students or colleagues, can create a hostile and
unprofessional atmosphere. This behavior negatively impacts the overall school culture and
undermines mutual respect and trust within the school community (Higgs & Smith, 2016).
