Are the Standards of Professional Conduct codified?
General principles of conduct can be found in Pennsylvania’s Code of Professional Practice and Conduct for Educators. (22 Pa. Code §235.1 et seq.) Any individual who becomes an educator in the Commonwealth makes a moral commitment to uphold the values reflected in the Code. In addition, the Professional Educator Discipline Act (24 P.S. §§2070.1a et seq.) sets forth the types of misconduct that can result in teacher discipline.
