School children as well as teachers & administrators need to feel safe in school. The duty to instill good morals & acceptable societal values in children does not rest solely on the shoulders of teachers.
The rate at which students violently attack and disrespect teachers/school administrators these days in Cameroon is alarming. The job of a teacher or discipline master is now a life threatening one. Something needs to be done urgently.
To the Parents, do not transfer to teachers your role in your child’s life.The first school of a child is his/her home and their first teachers are their parents and immediate caregivers. From a tender age, teach them #humility, #respect, #responsibility , with a strong foundation, they won’t easily get influenced to behave contrary in public
We call on teachers to avoid by all means possible any violent confrontation with students. Security checks should be enforced to sought out prohibited objects students bring to school. A good learning environment should offer a mentally, physically and emotionally safe learning climate for both learners and teachers.
