Ancient India Coinage

Ancient India Coinage Punch Marked Coins The Indus valley civilisation of Mohenjo-Daro and Harappa dates back between 2500 BC and 1750 BC. There, however, is no consensus on whether the seals excavated from the sites were in fact coins. Seals of Mohenjo-Daro The first documented coinage is deemed to start with 'Punch Marked' coins issued between the 7th-6th century BC and 1st century AD. These coins are called 'punch-marked' coins because of their manufacturing technique. Mostly made of silver, these bear symbols, each of which was punched on the coin with a separate punch. Punch Marked Coin, Silver Bentbar Issued initially by merchant Guilds and later by States, the coins represented a trade currency belonging to a period of intensive trade activity and urban development. They are broadly classified into two periods : the first period (attributed to the Janapadas or small local states) and the second period (attributed to the Imperial Mauryan period). The motifs found on these coins were mostly drawn from nature like the sun, various animal motifs, trees, hills etc. and some were geometrical symbols.

Coming: Code of ethics for teachers

New Delhi: Like doctors and lawyers, teachers may soon be subject to a “code of professional ethics”, which includes clauses for disciplinary action over corporal punishment, private tuitions and other “anti-community” activities.

If accepted by the government, the proposed code would apply to school teachers across the country, from primary to secondary and senior secondary levels, and across government as well as private schools, with the aim of restoring "dignity and integrity" to the vocation of teaching.

Code of Professional Ethics for Teachers Comments Invited

Code of Professional Ethics for School Teachers

Introduction

It is universally felt that like all other professions, the teaching profession should

also have its Code of Professional Ethics which is a pre-requisite to ensure its dignity

and integrity. It is also significant that the Right of Children to Free and Compulsory

Education Act, 2009 entails on teachers some onerous professional responsibilities to

be internalized by them in the performance of their duties. Accordingly, it is considered

necessary that the Code of Professional Ethics be evolved and adopted by the teaching

community.

For the purpose of this Code, the term “teacher” covers all school teachers,

whether in government or private schools, on full time or part time basis, at the

elementary and secondary levels and the teachers holding administrative and

supervisory positions

The Code of Professional Ethics for teachers provides a framework of principles

to guide them in discharging their obligations towards students, parents, colleagues and

community. Increased awareness of the ethical principles governing the teaching

profession is essential to ensure ‘professionalism’ among teachers.

Preamble

— Recognizing that every child has a fundamental right to education of good

quality;

— Recognizing that education should be directed to the all round development of

the human personality;

— Recognizing the need for developing faith in the guiding principles of our polity,

viz., democracy, social justice and secularism;

7

— Recognizing the need to promote through education the concept of composite

culture of India and a sense of national identity;

— Recognizing that teachers, being an integral part of the social milieu, share the

needs and aspirations of the people;

— Recognizing the need to enhance self-esteem of teachers;

— Recognizing the need to organize teaching as a profession for which expert

knowledge, specialized skills and dedication are pre-requisites;

— Recognizing that the community respect and support for the teachers are

dependent on the teachers’ professionalism, and

— Recognizing the need for self-direction and self-discipline among members of the

teaching community;

the present Code of Professional Ethics for school teachers has been

evolved to provide direction and guidance to the teachers in enhancing the

dignity of their professional work.

appear to influence professional decisions or actions.

3.6 Refrains from making unsubstantiated allegations against colleagues or

higher authorities.
