Case Study
You are the principal of a very famous school in the country. Despite your recognition throughout the country, you routinely have to seek for charitable donations to not just keep ahead of the competition but also to keep education as affordable as possible and also qualitatively good by ensuring good access to the required things for both teachers and students.
One of the possible donors that you approached is willing to donate sizeable money, however he has put a condition that you have to start a dedicated programme that includes bringing kids in slum areas under the umbrella of your school education.
though you support this idea , when you pitched the same to the school committee consisting of representatives from teachers as well as parents of the kids , they were unwilling to support you. Their primary concern was that the kids from these areas might dilute the moral nature and discipline amongst other kids.
In the context of the above case study, answer the following questions,
1) What are the ethical challenges for you as a principal in this situation?
2) Evaluate the pros and cons of various course of actions available.
3) Which course of action would you choose? Justify.
