Synopsis


The beginning teacher will analyse their responsibilities as a professional
educator through the initiatives of the Social Justice Strategy, and related
policies, and examine its relevance to the provision of education for all
members of the community through an inclusive curriculum.  As an adjunct to
this, various differences in value systems, including personal, individual and
societal, will be examined, in order to ascertain how ethical, legal and moral
issues may arise due to possible conflicts of interest.
