Introduction Litigation is becoming more prevalent in all areas of society, including education. Schools are now the focus of an array of legislation which influences and impacts on the daily professional lives of teachers. Subsequently, teaching is becoming an increasingly complex profession. The most prominent legal concern expressed by teachers is their vulnerability to negligence claims, as they work with those, who in the process of enhancing their physical, intellectual and critical abilities

Describe the policies and procedures for dealing with accidents, injuries, illnesses and other emergencies that are in place within the school setting (P3). These policies and procedures of accident, injury, illness and other emergencies are in place within the school setting to govern working practices and provide quality and an agreed framework for action. The management within the school setting is responsible for creating the policies and for checking that they are being followed, and the staffs

In respects to school teacher/staff involvement within a bullying incident, teacher must uphold “loco parentis.” According to K. Alexander, “schools, as corporate entities, and/or school administrators and teachers generally have a qualified or conditional privilege that protects them against liability unless their standard of care to protect students

Alexander’s mother took him to bus stop at Vermilion Elementary in Lafayette, LA, a predominately Black school. Mrs. Black greeted the students

inflation every year, intensifying the squeeze. We had different grievances. The curriculum was often irrelevant to the social crisis we perceived ourselves inheriting; it needed reform. Students were powerless under the paternal doctrine of in loco parentis; we wanted rights. Students were disenfranchised, even though men could be drafted; we needed the vote and alternatives to the draft.

The current juvenile justice system “has shifted away from protecting and reforming children to "protecting" society from young people prematurely deemed incapable of rehabilitation” (Aron & Hurley, 1998). Juvenile justice is a social issue that I feel strongly toward. I do not agree that sentencing adolescents to serve time in adult correctional facilities is a reasonable solution to alter behavior, especially for non-violent offenders. However, “for each of the past five years, roughly 100,000
