What constitutes sexual harassment between staff members in schools? Between students? Between students and staff? This Handbook examines these questions in relation to adult-to-student and student-to-student interactions. The authors define sexual harassment and abuse in schools, explain how it can be recognized and suggest ways to create and foster a healthy environment free of harassment and abuse.
