Psychological Effects and Strategies of Crisis — Management in School

(National and Capodestrian University of Athens, Greece)
Abstract: Crisis is an unexpected event that can disrupt the coherence and balance in a school community. The psychological consequences of such an event are visible, not only in students, but also in teachers and can manifest themselves in different ways depending on the sufferer. Consequently, a question is born: how does each student or teacher experience such an event and which strategies should be used for the appropriate handling and reclamation of crisis and its effects. This suggestion aims at the clarification of the definition “crisis” and the ways of handling so that an operational function of school supervenes.
Key words: crisis, psychological effects, ways of management, school
