This study investigated the prevalence of school violence in Cyprus from the perspective of teachers as victims, abusers, and bystanders. The sample comprised 1913 educators from various schools in Cyprus
who participated in the second phase of the survey. Data was collected using an online questionnaire developed by the Developmental Psychology Lab at University of Cyprus and statistical analysis was
conducted using SPSS. To investigate the factors associated with teachers' experiences of school violence, four hypotheses based on gender and teaching experience were examined. The hypotheses
included the idea that female teachers may be more likely to experience bullying than male teachers, younger teachers may be more likely to experience bullying, and experienced teachers may be more
likely to be perpetrators of violence, while less experienced teachers may be more likely to witness it.
