It may be referred to should a complaint be made against a teacher. The Code applies to Teachers and Tutors on the Teacher Training Course.[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=”2_3,1_3″ _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”2_3″ _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text admin_label=”Yamas” _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” text_text_color=”#000000″ header_2_font=”Cinzel||||||||” header_2_text_align=”center” header_2_text_color=”#FFFFFF” header_3_font=”Cinzel||||||||” header_3_text_color=”#000000″ background_color=”#FFFFFF” use_background_color_gradient=”on” custom_padding=”20px|20px|20px|20px|false|false” border_radii=”on|15px|15px|15px|15px” box_shadow_style=”preset2″ global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n
