TEACHER ACTIVITIES AGAINST VICTIMIZATION IN SCHOOL

Conflicts are encountered on a daily basis and are a common, inevitable part of life and part of human nature. Conflicts occur between people of all ages, i.e., between adults, between adults and children, and between children. The very realization of their existence, and the fact that we are thinking and talking about conflicts is an important way of providing strategies to resolve them. There are many ways to resolve conflicts; some prove to be successful, and others not; however, there is no single, correct or universal recipe for conflict resolution. There are just different paths, which we keep rediscovering over and over again. The same goes for resolving conflicts in school, which is why it is very important that an appropriate climate is created in the school, which promotes positive values. At the same time, it is important that both teachers and students are trained in (potential) conflict resolution. This research focuses mainly on the perception of real and potential conflicts and indicates possible solutions, which were created as part of the international Erasmus + project Mediators and Peacemakers Against Peer Victimization – MEPEV
