Children as young as seven are posting abusive and damaging comments their teachers social networking websites such as Facebook and Twitter, according new research. Even worse, some the children's parents are adding their comments what constitutes a serious escalation the cyber-bullying educators. The British teaching union NASUWT conducted a survey more than 7,500 teachers. It found that almost half of teachers had reported abuse the school, police or the website on which the insults were posted. Other figures show that more than 20 per cent of teachers felt they had been cyber-bullied the past year. Three per cent of the comments were under-elevens.

The survey revealed that 64% the comments were made pupils, 27% by parents, and the rest a mix of both. Many of the comments related teachers’ appearance, competence, and sexuality. Chris Keates, NASUWT general secretary, said: "It is clear that steps need to be taken to protect teachers the abuse of social media pupils and parents." She added: "Teachers are often devastated the vile nature the abuse they are suffering. Some have lost their confidence to teach once they see foul and personal remarks made pupils their classes and have left the profession." Many teachers are afraid to report the abuse. They think it would lead to more trouble.
