Purpose of Education

The purpose of education is as James Baldwin puts it in his article, A Talk With Teachers, "Is to create in a person to l00k at the world for themselves". This is the very idea of what teachers are to do, educate the children and not just school them. It is not for teachers to decide who to educate and who not to educate. We are to educate those who are sent to us. Professional conduct is paramount to being a successful teacher. Once one strive to achieve this standard then all aother standards of the Code of Ethics will fall into place. Just as well as the primary duty of a teacher, educating the next generation of citizens.
