Teacher BullyingTeacher bullying is defined as a pattern of conduct, rooted in a power differential, that threatens, harms, humiliates, induces fear, or causes students considerable emotional stress (McEvoy, 2014 ). Teachers who bully students are usually bullied by former teachers. Teachers who mistreat their students do so because the building they are in has no protocol in place to discourage it. It is important for administrators to offer professional development to ensure that teachers know how to deal with children from all types of backgrounds. Students will most likely not succeed if they feel targeted by teachers and school administrators. It is important to make students feel respected, wanted and welcomed. If you are a classroom teacher aspiring to become an administrator, I have one final thought to share: Administrators must never forget where they came from and where they might return (Pulda, 2004). An effective administrator will be able to put themselves in the teacher's shoes and make the most ethical decisions. Students, parents, and even teachers will question your ability to be an effective administrator. When asked about your professional background it's best to be honest with those who are asking you questions you may not really want to answer. You must always remember that it is your background that has gotten you to where you are as an administrator. Ethical Decisions More money more problems is the norm, but for a school administrator you are the boss and I need a job. Choosing whether or not to hire family, friends and former colleagues is one of the most difficult and ethical decisions an administrator makes. There is a very fine line that needs to be drawn when deciding who school administrators are the leaders of school buildings and it is their job to make sure that every child receives what they are promised by law. School leaders, however, have a set of ethical standards that will help them make the best decisions for the staff and students they serve. Their personal beliefs come into play, but it's up to them to use the standards to guide them along their path. School administrators must advocate for both students and staff to maintain a positive school culture. Empowering students by giving them responsibility for their own learning and developing positive relationships are just some of the ways a school culture can thrive. On the other hand, administrators will need to ensure that rules exist to protect students from staff bullies. Students should feel safe and secure when they are at school. Students should be protected from mental, physical and breach-of-confidentiality harm. This can also be done by ensuring that school policies are in place for all staff to follow.
