Abstract

This article comprehensively examines the theoretical foundations and approaches for developing professional ethics among future physical education teachers. It explores various pedagogical theories, educational practices, and ethical frameworks that collectively contribute to shaping ethically responsible educators. Given the integral role physical education teachers play in influencing student values, attitudes, and behaviors, fostering ethical competence during teacher preparation is vital. The discussion includes an analysis of contemporary ethical challenges, effective pedagogical strategies, and the role of reflective practice and mentorship in cultivating ethical professionalism.
