Overview
Educators are required to report misconduct matters.
Chief school administrators of school entities have additional mandatory reporting responsibilities.
File A Complaint
A complaint of misconduct starts the Department's review of an educator. You may file a complaint with the Department. There is no time limitation for the filing of a complaint.
- The Department of Education takes educator discipline cases to court under the Educator Discipline Act.
- The Department gathers pre-complaint referrals and educator misconduct complaints for inspection. It reviews these cases, examining each one case-by-case.
- The Department prosecutes educators before the Commission when they deserve discipline.
For safety and to preserve evidence, please report any alleged misconduct by an educator as soon as you can.
