| Abstract |
Schools in Germany are required to take an active role in preventing sexual child abuse since 2012. To fulfil this task both active and future teachers need further education. This further education is organized by specialized centres for teacher education. In this study we investigate whether and how centres for teacher education provide and support education focused on prevention against child sexual abuse. As school education is organized by a federal approach, every county has its own centre for teacher education. In a pilot study many centres in Lower Saxony denied a need for information for teachers and thus did not provide nor support any effort for education referring to prevention. Accordingly, it remains interesting to check the situation in all other counties in Germany. Results stem from interviews or questionnaires, all obtained data will be analysed by qualitative content analysis. |
