Some Don't For Teachers

10 great Don’ts for teachers.

1.Don’t send a student away from your class during lesson as a result of bad behaviour. You cannot account for what the child is doing outside and this gonna work against you if a major incident happens.
2.Don’t touch a child physically  especially in sec schools.If the child claims you touched his/her private parts, you cannot deny it.
3.Don’t give assignment you know you won’t have time to mark. Unmarked assignments in your students’ notes show that you are incompetent and unprofessional.
4.Don’t use your school internet to send private and confidential emails. They can be tracked by school management ICT dept.
5. Don’t just teach only within the periods given to you if you are preparing students (SS3 and JS3） for external examinations. Create more contact  time for your students.
6.Don’t stay with a student alone in a class , lab, office etc. Child protection policy forbids it. Avoid “one corner” teaching.
7.Don’t ask a child to kneel down for too long a time. He or she might have had kneel surgery or serious dislocation which you do not know hitherto.
8. Don’t not conspire against your line manager（HOD,Academic heads et al）
9.Don’t write “seen” or “checked” on a child’s note even though you did not actually check.
10.Don’t treat students unequally.There should be nothing like your favourite students. Every child matters.
