RECEs, by virtue of their professional role and responsibilities, hold positions of trust and responsibility with regard to children under their professional supervision. RECEs understand the importance of maintaining professional boundaries with children, families and colleagues. They are aware of dual relationships and identify and declare conflicts of interest when they arise and take action to prevent harm to children or their families. (Standard V: A, Code of Ethics and Standards of Practice)
The
Code of Ethics and Standards of Practice provides the foundation of practice for all Registered Early Childhood Educators (RECEs). As the profession evolves, it's important to continually revisit the Code and Standards to ensure you understand your professional and ethical responsibilities and reflect on how you’re applying them in your daily practice.
