Abstract

This article sheds light on the administration’s critical role in preparing the school team, and particularly teachers in professional insertion, to resolve ethical issues as a team. Four avenues are explored: developing an ethical framework for each school team member, creating a space conducive to sharing values and principles, updating knowledge of the professional framework, and implementing procedures for resolving ethical problems as they arise.
