Perceptions of Middle School Teachers on Teacher Bullying

awareness about teacher bullying. Since many students have reported that their worst experience of bullying was perpetrated by a teacher, it is important to include teacher-to-student bullying when discussing bullying. It is also important to include teacher bullying in the formation and implementation of policies in order to protect students from this type of abuse (Pottinger & Stair, 2009). References Beaty, L.
