The two scenarios classify them as perceived or real conflict of interest and describe how each situation should be addressed. |
Scenario 1 The contract of the business that was running the school canteen ended and the Principal did not accept their application to renew the contract despite the large variety of healthy food choices and good service provided. Students and their families expressed their regret to hear about this decision. A new private company took over the canteen but the quality of food and service is lower than before. Students do not have a choice of hot meals and their cultural and health-related dietary requirements are barely met. The owner of the company that took over the canteen is the school office manager's daughter who just started her own catering business. The school office manager has an old friendship with one of the School Council members. |
Scenario 2 You notice that lately the class teacher you work with spends a lot of time with one of the students and does not make herself available to other students when they ask for help. She is very brief and asks you to take over. Also, the teacher does not ask you to provide support to this particular student anymore. One day, at the end of school hours you notice the student's mother having a long chat with the teacher in the classroom and giving her a gift bag. A few days after, you overhear the father of the student telling the teacher that he had finished the gardening at the front of her house. |
