In what scenario would a teacher's license be subject to disciplinary action?

A teacher's license may be subject to disciplinary action in the event of engaging in alcohol-related incidents during a school event. This is because teachers are regarded as role models and are expected to maintain a professional demeanor, especially in settings that directly involve students and the community. Acts of misconduct, such as being under the influence of alcohol, can undermine the safety and integrity of the educational environment. Such actions may lead to consequences that could jeopardize their professional standing and license.

In contrast, changing a lesson plan for a single student typically demonstrates flexibility and responsiveness to individual learning needs and is generally viewed positively. Giving extra tutoring hours for free showcases a teacher's commitment to their students' success and does not fall under behaviors that would warrant disciplinary measures. Similarly, sharing personal opinions on educational policy is often considered a part of professional discourse and does not inherently conflict with a teacher’s responsibilities unless it involves unprofessional conduct or breaches of policy.
