Answers


Ruth
1.Failure to cater for individual differences.
When the students feel that the teachers are not caring for them individually they tend to Feel insecure, Uncertain and Afraid.

2. Autocratic control
If the teachers and the school administration do not exercise democratic control in their
interaction with pupils then problems arise. The pupils who are ruled with an iron fist
have their resourcefulness and initiative stifled. This happens because they can never
learn to Control their behavior, Their actions. Their thoughts

3. Humiliating pupils in public
There are times when students do the wrong things. For example, When they fail to complete assignments, They make noise in class etc, Many times the scolding is meant to make the erring boy or girl suffer humiliation in the presence of peers or the whole school.
• A teacher who exposes pupils to this kind of humiliation is like us to contribute to
delinquency.
• This will occur when the pupil decides to skip school all the together and join a
gang of truant pupils who care nothing for school.

4. Teachers can also use labels on pupils.
This happens when the teacher decides to refer to pupil’s social inferiority or even stress
on the pupil’s negative behavior or weakness. This kind of cruelty is experienced by
many pupils who have been convinced that they are; Dumb, Bad, Stubborn, Disobedient and Outright defective.
Naturally children have a way of fulfilling their teachers prophesies by displaying their
labels. They become what their teacher says they are.
