Charol Shakeshaft, who has done extensive research on the problem of sexual abuse of students by teachers, recognizes the difficulty of collecting solid data on sexual abuse; but using available studies, she estimates that “the physical sexual abuse of students in schools is likely more than one hundred times the abuse by priests.” According to Shakeshaft's research, even when abuse was reported to school officials the offenders were not reported to the police. In her study of 225 cases in New York, “none of the abusers were reported to authorities and only 1 percent lost their license to teach.” https://www.nbcnews.com/id/wbna21392345 https://www.nbcnews.com/id/wbna21392345 https://www.edweek.org/leadership/sexual-abuse-by-educators-is-scrutinized/2004/03 https://www.edweek.org/leadership/sexual-abuse-by-educators-... https://childrenstreatmentcenter.com/sexual-abuse-teachers/ https://childrenstreatmentcenter.com/sexual-abuse-teachers/ https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2020/dec/17/child-sexual-abuse-in-schools-often-an-open-secret-says-inquiry https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2020/dec/17/child-sexual...
