Description
Book SynopsisWhile this subject is one that no educator wants to confront, it is also one about which schools must be knowledgeable. Biggs thoroughly explores the legal, psychological, administrative, and educational (broad policy) issues regarding teachers who sexually abuse students. He also provides administrators with background information and guidelines that will help protect school children from sexual intrusion, furnishes the psychological and legal definitions of objectionable sexual behaviors, recommends administrative procedures that should prevent or minimize such incidents by reducing human and environmental risk factors, and explains techniques for investigating alleged incidents.
