We lack the training to spot the first signs Faced with sexual violence, the delicate task of detecting teachers

The article discusses the challenges faced by teachers in detecting signs of sexual violence against minors within schools. According to a 2023 report by the independent commission Ciivise, three children per class are victims of incest and sexual abuse. Despite 80,000 annual reports made by school staff to prosecutors or as 'concerning information,' educators feel underprepared to identify early warning signs. The article highlights the difficulties in recognizing such issues, especially among very young children who lack the language skills to express their experiences. A kindergarten director notes her struggles in identifying cases directly related to sexual aggression, emphasizing the need for better training.
