evaluate own roles and responsibilities in lifelong learning
1.3 Evaluate own role and responsibilities in lifelong learning
Any roles come with own responsibilities. We have to act within professional codes which involve knowledge of the Code of Professional Practice (2008). This was introduced by the Institute for Learning, to cover the activities of teachers in the Lifelong Sector. The code is based on seven behaviours:
Professional integrity,
Respect,
Reasonable care,
Professional practice
Criminal offence disclosure
Responsibility during institute investigations
Responsibility.
And as well as responsibilities include maintaining knowledge of current legislations with regard to the Equality Act 2006, The Protection of Children Act 1999, the Human Rights Act 1998, Freedom of Information Act 2000 and the Safeguarding Vulnerable Groups Act 2006, Data Protection Act 1998 as well as all relevant Health and Safety issues. (Health and Safety at Work Act 1974).
Within my role as a teacher i must not discriminate against any sex, age, gender, ability, or people with disabilities. "The Equality Act 2010 is the law which bans unfair treatment and helps achieve equal opportunities in the workplace and in wider society. I must not become too personally involved with learners, writing or exchanging notes, letters or emails, being alone with a learner with the exception of an emergency situation, sharing your personal problems with learner, sharing personal information about a student with another one.
As a teacher I should know about the laws and liabilities, having another person present when attending to the personal needs of special needs learners, and I should always remember that a teacher and the students relationship has boundaries of time, place, purpose, and activity.
