A female teacher in her 30s at a prefectural high school in Miyagi prefecture committed suicide, and the prefectural board of education determined that power harassment from a fellow teacher led to the suicide.The prefectural teachers' union held a press conference on the 8th and said, ``We are pushing her colleague into a corner.'' The causes must be thoroughly clarified."

Four years ago, at a prefectural high school in Miyagi Prefecture, a female teacher in her 30s committed suicide after being repeatedly shown letters by her colleague, a 59-year-old male teacher, complaining about his behavior and notes criticizing the female teacher. The Board of Education determined that power harassment led to the suicide, and on the 2nd of this month, the male teacher was suspended from his job for three months and disciplined.



Regarding this, Masayuki Takahashi, executive chairman of the Miyagi Prefectural High School and Disabled Children's Teachers Union, held a press conference at the prefectural office and said, ``No one should be forced to die at school, and the cause must be thoroughly investigated.'' It must be done.”



In addition, although the teachers' union did not receive any consultation from the deceased female teacher, other schools have received serious inquiries from related parties, including about power harassment. It might be a part of it."



After that, the prefectural board of education is


asked to investigate the facts,


consider the form of consultation desks at the board of education and schools, and


regularly hold review meetings that include teachers' unions in order to eliminate power harassment. I asked for it to open etc.
