Education should impart values to promote a humanistic outlook of life and it is the duty of the teachers to impart such a value-based education. In order to perform this job successfully, a teacher is expected to possess desired qualities of character and be an embodiment of human values himself. Good teachers consider, ‘accountability’ as a part of their professional ethics. It also indicates the responsibility of the teachers to adherence to codes of practice and ethics of the profession. The teacher, thus, is considered as the unit of account. As the area of educational accountability is so vast; therefore this study was undertaken to explore the area of teacher accountability in context of value education. The sample is consisted of 200 secondary school teachers of Amritsar district, both from Government and Private sectors that was further divided into two equal groups : Rural and Urban. The descriptive research method was used. Teacher Accountability Scale for Value Education and Teacher Interpersonal Relationship Scale (both constructed by investigator herself) was used for data collection. Pearson Product Moment Correlation (r) was used to find out the degree of relationship between the criterion variable and independent variable whereas Mean, S.D. and t-test were applied to find out significant differences between criterion variable in terms of their locale and type of school. The findings of the present study revealed that Interpersonal relationship of the secondary school teachers plays a significant role in their accountability for value education. The study also found that there is no significant difference in the teacher accountability for value education among secondary school teachers with respect to their locale (rural and urban) and type of school (govt. and private).

Today, determination of world environmental quality is a significant problem. This problem has resulted in a global effort to include aspects of environmental education in school curriculum at all levels in an appropriate manner. However, the objectives of environmental education cannot be realized by simply by infusing environmental concepts into existing curriculum. The effective infusion of environmental education into school programme is possible only when teachers have the required orientation. Therefore Pre-service teacher training on environmental education is necessary to make the teachers aware of: the goals and objectives of environmental education, the scope of curricular content and subject matter, proper methodologies to transfer knowledge and skills to students, and evaluation methods necessary to assess the effectiveness of learning outcomes (Rebello, 1994). According to Rebello any effective environmental education programme for preservice and in-service teacher education should consist of three basic elements: (i) The education needs (ii) A functional knowledge of environmental education and (iii) A grasp of educational methods and professional skills needed to impart cognitive, affective and psychomotor skills to the students. It is the teacher who would interpret and transmit the massage of EE to the students, whatever be the level of educational qualification one is concerned with. A teacher properly equipped with necessary knowledge, skills and attitudes, become an essential prerequisites for successfully introducing any programme of EE in schools. Thus, proper orientation of teachers into EE concerns is a matter of vital importance (Govinda, 1994).
