This volume delves into a relatively neglected area - the ethical principles governing the conduct of teachers, administrators, and other education professionals - and strives to provide a thoughtful starting-point for discussion in the field. The contributors' collective exploration of the subject, encompassing many different and sometimes conflicting vantage points, results in an overview of the many issues that define the place of ethics in professional preparation and practice. Part 1 lays out several alternative philosophical positions about teaching ethics to educational professionals. Parts 2 and 3 examine questions of how to include ethics in the pre-service curriculum, and how a concern for ethics can be institutionalised in the schools.

Ethics and the Good Teacher brings together reviews of existing literature and analysis of empirical data from three research projects conducted by the Jubilee Centre for Character and Virtues – The Good Teacher, Schools of Virtue and Teacher Education – to explore the ethical dimensions of the teaching profession. The book is premised on the idea that what constitutes a "good" teacher involves more than technical skills and subject knowledge. Understood as a professional activity, teaching involves an important ethical dimension, a fact that has come under increased scrutiny – and some would argue increased threat – over recent years as education and schooling have become shaped by market logic and accountability. Addressing the influence of personal and professional character on teachers and teaching, and containing clear implications for policy, practice and research, this book will be of great interest to teachers and other professionals working in education settings, as well as those working in educational policy. It will also appeal to academics, undergraduate students and postgraduate students researching the teaching profession and ethics/morality in education more generally.
