4. TEACHERS AT WORK
Teachers commit to the standards and ethics of
their work because they are responsible for
managing their duties, developing their work
and expertise, and assessing their own actions
as they teach in a manner that reflects their
personality, so developing and caring for their
individuality is their right and obligation. Aside
from that, they have the right to be treated
fairly at work.

5. TEACHERS TO LEARNERS
Teachers must accept and treat learners as unique
human beings, respect their rights, and respond to
them humanely and fairly. They must try to understand
the learners' starting point, thoughts, and opinions
while handling matters related to the learner's
personality and privacy with care. They are also
expected to pay special attention to learners who need
care and protection and to never tolerate bullying or
abuse of others. Teachers' work includes fostering
confidence and positive relationships.

6. TEACHERS AT WORK COMMUNITY
Teachers value their work and respect their
colleagues. They try to pool their resources and
strike a balance between their autonomy and
the needs of the workplace. Accepting
colleagues' differences, understanding them,
and helping and supporting one another are key
principles of the workplace community.

7. TEACHERS AND SOCIETY
Teachers' ability to be effective in their work
and care for their professional development is
dependent not only on their commitment, but
also on the resources allocated to teaching
and education as they promote the
opportunities offered by education and
growth. They also teach students how to be
responsible members of a democratic society
through their work.
