 Çocuk istismarı eğitim, sağlık, hukuk gibi birden çok disiplini ilgilendiren toplumsal bir sorundur. İstismar, içeriği, görülme sıklığı, şiddeti ve çocuk üzerinde bıraktığı kalıcı hasar yönüyle değerlendirildiğinde önemli bir halk sağlığı krizi olarak karşımıza çıkmaktadır. Çocuk istismarını önlemede çocukla ve aileyle kurulacak sağlıklı ilişki ile bilgilendirme çalışmalarının önemi yadsınamaz. Bu açıdan düşünüldüğünde gerek çocuk istismarının tanılanması gerekse önlenmesi noktasında eğitimcilere büyük görevler düşmektedir. Bu çalışmada öğretmen ve okul idarecilerinin çocuk istismarı ile ilgili farkındalıklarının tespit edilmesi amaçlanmıştır. Çalışmada öğretmenlerin ve okul idarecilerinin çocuk istismarı ile ilgili görüşleri ve deneyimlerine ilişkin ayrıntılı bilgi elde edilmesi amacıyla nitel araştırma yöntemlerinden olgu bilim deseni kullanılmıştır. Araştırmanın çalışma grubunu 2016-2017 eğitim öğretim yılında Erzurum ilinde ilkokul, ortaokul ve liselerde görev yapmakta olan 8i öğretmen, 6sı okul idarecisi olmak üzere 14 eğitimci oluşturmaktadır. Çalışmada amaçlı örnekleme yöntemi kullanılmıştır. Veri toplama aracı olarak araştırmacı tarafından alan yazın taranarak oluşturulan yarı yapılandırılmış görüşme formu kullanılmıştır. Çocukların en çok akrabaları ve ebeveynleri tarafından istismar edildiği, ebeveynlerin çocuklara hem şiddet uyguladıkları hem de beslenme, giyinme, eğitim ve duygusal ihtiyaçlarını karşılamadıkları için ihmal ettikleri görüşü literatürde yapılan diğer çalışmalarla desteklenmektedir. Çalışmada çok az sayıda eğitimcinin şiddet, çocuk istismarı ve ihmali konularında eğitim aldıkları, bu eğitimi de lisans eğitimleri sırasında aldıkları ancak bunun yeterli olduğunu düşünmedikleri saptanmıştır. Sonuç olarak, eğitimciler çocuk istismarı ve ihmali konusunda bilgilendirilir, tanımaya ve önlemeye yönelik onlara rehberlik edilirse yeni vakaların oluşumunun engellenmesinde, erken tanınmasında ve problem durumla daha etkili bir şekilde baş edilmesinde önemli katkı sağlayabilirler.
