Background: Teachers' educational ethics are one of the key factors in shaping students' personality and behavior. Baro's educational ethics theories, with their emphasis on principles such as attention to individual differences, moral self-awareness, and strengthening a sense of responsibility, are recognized as a valuable theoretical framework for improving teachers' educational performance. However, no comprehensive research has been conducted to design a native and practical model based on this perspective in the Iranian educational system.
Aims: This study aims to achieve a model of teachers' educational ethics, not only bringing them closer to human perfectionism but also making them a model for the rational and correct behavior of students and leading society towards perfection.
Methods: On the one hand, the analysis of the theoretical foundations of the research was carried out with a descriptive-analytical method, the statistical population of which consisted of 25 books and one scientific-research article. On the other hand, the current research method was qualitative and phenomenological. The statistical population included all teachers working in the academic year 2022-2023. And among them, 20 people were selected and interviewed in a targeted way and according to the entry criteria. Data collection was done by presenting stories and tests about them. Data analysis was analyzed using Maxqda2022 software.
Results: The findings indicated that the principle of respect for people was the most important theme approved and accepted by the participants, which included 6 sub-themes, and the other four primary principles in Barrow's theory, namely, happiness with 8 sub-themes, truth with 3 sub-themes, freedom with 2 sub-topics, fairness with 6 sub-topics led to this principle.
Conclusion: In this research, based on Baro's moral theories and based on teachers' moral judgments, a unified model of educational ethics was designed and defined, and a model was obtained whose basic components are: fairness, freedom, respect, truth and happiness..
