A growing and worrying trend is happening in Canadian schools – student violence against teachers is on the rise . Data from school boards across Canada supports this finding, with one study finding that the modern-day classroom is a hazardous workplace. But the reasons why violence is more common are complex, and educators, school boards and unions aren’t always in agreement on how to fix it.
