Violence against teachers, caused by students, has been a neglected area in research on school violence. The presents study addresses this lack of studies by examining the prevalence and characteristics of different types of student generated teacher victimization as well as how factors on both the individual and school level protect or put teachers at risk of different types of student generated teacher victimization, using a nationwide randomized sample of 6th to 9th grade teachers in Swedish schools. The final sample included 1,230 teachers (61.5%), 47.7 % males (n: 587) and 52.3 % (n: 643) females. Results showed that nearly one-third of the teachers had experienced at least one incident of student generated violence during the past 12 months. Results also show that factors on both the individual and school level were related to student generated teacher victimization. Being female, older, having higher levels of collegial support as well as working at schools with assertive anti-bullying/harassment strategies protected teachers against student generated violence. In conclusion, the study indicates that teacher victimization needs to be prioritized by school leaders since a large proportion of teachers has experienced different types of student generated violence.
