School teachers are generally the subject of bullying but they are sometimes also the originators of bullying in the school environment. When an adult oppresses a child, it is referred to as psychological, emotional, or verbal abuse. According to the American Psychological Association , it is as dangerous for children as sexual or physical abuse. "Children who are emotionally abused and neglected face the same mental health problems and are sometimes worse off as children who are physically or sexually abused, but psychological abuse is rarely discussed in prevention programs or in treating victims, according to a new study published by the American Psychological Association. "

Incident
While teacher bullying is recognized as serious and dangerous, there are no statistics about teachers who intimidate other people or disturbed teachers. However, according to one article, a high percentage of teachers recognize students who are bullying.
A comprehensive study conducted in England found that teaching is one of the most high-risk jobs of bullying:
- 15.5% of teachers stated that they are currently being bullied
- 35.4% say they have been harassed for the past five years.
In another survey, the Institute for Economic and Social Research found bullying to be more common in schools (13.8%) than in other workplaces (7.9%).

Dynamic complex
There is a complex problem with bullying reporting by teachers, not only for children, but also for parents. By way of their position of power over the child, the power that allows them to influence the present and future of children, children and parents is reluctant to report it. There are special signs that parents should pay attention to because their child does not want to reveal that the teacher is actually a bully.
In addition, an intruder teacher can be present as a figure of Jekyll and Hyde: he is often celebrated and popular so their harrassment can last for long periods without being noticed. Lack of research on teachers in the classroom, again difficult to ascertain, but certainly in teaching sports, we see adults are often rewarded for bullying behaviors that will never be tolerated or excused if done by a child.
In school environments, this applies to teachers in the classroom as well as in their role as school sports coaches.
Parsons identifies teacher intimidation as part of a broader bullying culture in schools, with complex network dynamics such as:
- teachers may be interrupted by: teachers, other students, office staff, principals, school governors and/or parents
- teachers may oppress: teachers, students and/or other parents
- the bullying teacher may itself be interrupted by others in turn
Workspace oppression
A common manifestation of bullying teachers is bullying staff where teachers are bullied by other teachers or school managers.
Manifestation
In investigating bullying teachers it is important to distinguish teachers or coaches from demanding degrading opponents. So "shouting" for example can be very productive and motivating, but if it involves disparaging and mixed with contempt and vows, it becomes rough. Teacher oppression can take many forms to harass and bully including:
- swear
- yell, especially near child
- using homophobic, misogynistic, defamatory racism, or direct personal attacks, commentary that targets child's disability or difference
- embarrass
- berate
- ignore
- avoid
- throw objects
- goes berserk
- reveals a child's disgust with cues or facial expressions
- mumbling dirty words so that only targeted children or children are listening
Teacher oppression can take many forms to harass and bully including:
- face-to-face confrontation
- memo
- cyber-bullying (including the use of text messages or social networking sites).
Bullyers often take advantage of seniority positions over their intimidating counterparts (see rank) by:
- criticize their work
- make unwarranted claims against workload (see settings for failure)
- sarcasm and jokes directed at victims
- ruin it by overriding their decisions and views.
In some cases, teachers are ignored and isolated by co-workers in the teacher's room or denied for a promotional or training course (see nursing care). At other times, teachers are excommunicated as whistleblowers when they report to the administrator about student reports about bullying by their peers.
Impact
In particular, there is little or no research on teachers who intimidate students. The imbalance of teacher power over students is greater than that of colleagues and can increase the impact. The study of child bullying, or parental oppression to children, for now, should be extrapolated to consider the possible impact of bullying by teachers that include:
- anxiety, depression, panic disorder
- hurt yourself
- low self esteem
- addicted to alcohol and drugs
- eating disorder
- long-term health consequences
- brain injury
- suicide
Possible impacts of teacher bullying include:
- victimization and blaming victims
- false accusations and making formal disciplinary action
- stress symptoms such as anxiety, headache, nausea, palpitations, and hypertension
- symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) such as impaired immune systems, sleep problems, excessive guilt, irritability, hypervigilance, constant anxiety, reactive depression, and suicidal thoughts. li>
- lose self-esteem
- lost work
Famous incident
In April 2012, Stuart Chaifetz, the father of an autistic boy, released a video on YouTube that provided evidence that his son was suspected to be the subject of emotional abuse at the hands of his teacher and assistant at Horace Mann Elementary School, at Cherry Hill Public. The school district. The evidence was secured when Chaifetz sent his son before sending him to school. When he listened to audio recordings, according to a news report, "Chaifetz said he arrested his son gossiping teacher, talked about alcohol and shouted loudly at students.He brought audio to the Cherry Hill School District, where officials fired one of them. after hearing the tape, Chaifetz's son was transferred to a new school, where Chaifetz said he was okay. "However, it appears that students with learning disabilities may be especially at risk for bullying teachers.
In 2011, select Council members, Pastors and Principals at St. Michaels University School was told that teachers are abusing students in basketball programs. They received an eleven-page document written by a lawyer, who was also a parent at school, outlining the "child abuse" incident that happened to the basketball team in High School. Parents are not informed; the teacher remains in his position. Although not aware of this document, throughout the year, at least five families make significant formal complaints to Council members, Pastors and Principals about cruel coaching behavior. In 2012, at least thirteen students, at the request of the Principal, agreed on a detailed and written testimony of the verbal, emotional and physical violence they suffered at the hands of their teachers who trained them as co-curricular.
How they are treated by the Principal, the Board of Governors, the lawyers hired by the school, and the educational authority are the subject of a front-page story by award-winning investigative journalist Robert Cribb and the CT5 W5 episode. The story is a catalyst for a book, Teaches the Troublemaker: Zero Tolerance in Court or in Class by Jennifer Fraser, PhD. Fraser's book places the story in the context of extensive research into the work of psychologists, psychiatrists, and neurologists to explore the taboo subject often from Master and Bullying Coaches.
Informed by research into serious, extensive, and often irreparable damage to the brains of teenagers in particular, Fraser has launched awareness campaigns on Facebook and Twitter (@teachingbullies) in an effort to get MPs to place emotional abuse into the criminal code along with sexual and physical harassment. Neuroscientists believe it is not the same if it does not harm the identical to develop the brain.
In June 2014, the British proposed "Cinderella's Law" which would place an emotional abuse in the Criminal Code.
