Generally speaking, it refers to a declaration of the basic attitude and policy that teachers should adopt in carrying out their duties, and the term "Teachers' Code of Ethics" usually refers to the 10-item code of ethics that was decided by the Japan Teachers' Union at its 9th convention (held in Niigata) in June 1952. The code declares that teachers should respond to the issues facing Japanese society, live alongside young people, strive for equal educational opportunities, protect peace, and act on the basis of scientific truth (items 1-4), protect educational freedom, pursue correct politics, resist social decadence, and create a new culture (items 5-7), be teachers as workers (item 8), and protect the right to live and show unity (items 9-10).

Japanese:

一般的には、教員がその職務を遂行していく基本的姿勢や方針を宣言したものをいい、通常「教師の倫理綱領」といえば、日本教職員組合が1952年(昭和27)6月第9回大会(新潟)で決定した10項目からなる倫理綱領を意味する。同綱領では、日本の社会の課題にこたえて青少年とともに生き、教育の機会均等に尽力し、平和を守り、科学的真理にたって行動する教師(1~4項)、教育の自由を守り、正しい政治を求め、社会の頽廃(たいはい)に抗し、新しい文化を創る教師(5~7項)、労働者としての教師(8項)、生活権を守り、団結する教師(9~10項)であるべきことが宣言されている。
