Are you all familiar with the family code of the philippines title 9? The next lesson talks about legal bases for teachers authority, responsibility and accountability inside or outside the premises of the school. There have been cases of child abuse in schools that have been reported in print and broadcast media. These constitute professional malpractice and violation of the standards and the code of ethics of the profession. Society demands that the teacher uses his/her best professional judgment to produce desired results in the learning environment just as it asks the physician to use his best professional judgment in deciding what medical regiment to prescribe. So basically, this deals with decisions that a teacher make when a student is under her wing. Especially to those students who only have guardians or better yet no parent and guardian at all. The school, administrators and teachers, or the individual, entity, or institution engaged shall have special parental authority and responsibility over the minor child while under supervision, instruction or custody. But as teachers we should always keep in this in mind, in no case shall the school administrator, teacher of individual engaged in child care and exercising special parental authority, inflict corporal punishment upon the child. That would be all, thank you!
