The BC teaching standards is a blueprint designed for teachers to be healthy respectful individuals inside and outside of their educational community. Parents entrust teachers with their kids 5 days out of every week, and there must be ethical standards to which teachers should be held. This is not only for the safety of the children, but also for the safety of the teachers. I believe that these standards are put in place in order to help teachers succeed in their practice, and also I believe that we must have standards to promote growth.
