Teachers
A teacher from Texas; Yes! Yes! Please do this. This would be the quickest way to fix our education system at very little cost. Give parents a code to do real time virtual visits to the classroom. Observing teachers not just for accountability, but also for training purposes. Get rid of behavior management problems on the spot f Schools should have glass walls and this is the easiest way to have them.
A teacher from Kansas: This would prevent abuse from both teachers and students. A camera in the classroom should be able to put everyone on their best behavior. It would be a deterrent against abusive behavior. As a teacher, I would love to have a camera in the classroom as I strive to behave professionally towards students. Sometimes, I encounter aggressive and inappropriate behavior. Talking to a parent of an
abusive student would benefit from a short video of the incident.
A teacher from New Jersey: The idea of installing cameras in classrooms is an absolutely sick one. It has nothing to do with pedagogy, but with prison, terror, discomfort, guilt, etc. It induces a constant feeling of guilt to students as well as to teachers. If you are a real professional, as a teacher, or even if you are just a normal person, claiming a right to normality, especially in schools, you will realize that camera surveillance in class is something coming from paranoid people who cannot lead the activity through normal behavior.
Students
Terry Piper, a student from Michigan: I feel the time is right for security cameras at my school. After all, dozens of schools in the country have already done it, and with some success. There are 30 high schools in Oakland County, and every single one of them has security cameras except Seaholm and Groves. They’ve seen thefts go down. They’ve been able to solve instances of vandalism on occasion, and there have been student altercations where they’ve been helpful. They also serve as a deterrent, so you never know how many things might have happened if you hadn’t had them.
Joe, a student from Ohio: I think that installing security cameras in schools is a good idea. Having them in the entrances and the hallways is a way to cut back on school crime and protect the student population. However, I think that putting those cameras actually within the classrooms violates the privacy of both the students and the teachers. Knowing that someone could be watching you at all times may bring security, but it’s likely to distract students and teachers and could be harmful to learning.
A parent
Video cameras have begun to invade privacy. These days, parents are obsessed with monitoring everything about their kids, but taping their education is not the solution. The cameras would be a distraction, and eager parents couldn’t resist watching and interfering constantly. In general, cameras are already too pervasive in society. It has created a culture of big brother watching every last action, and this prevents people from acting normally because everyone feels they are being watched.

Should More Security Cameras Be Installed in Schools? Due to the frequent reoccurrence of various accidents and incidents in schools, such as vandalism, bullying, truancy and theft, many school administrators are considering installing security cameras in schools as a preventive countermeasure and many of them have taken action. However, a heated discussion has arisen among students, parents and teachers about its necessity. The notion is favored by many teachers, believing that cameras, as a deterrent, can have an immediate effect on guarding against potential incidents, and consequently a significant decrease in incidents will be witnessed in schools with cameras. What’s more, other school faculty find the security camera a convincing proof when dealing with misbehavior in classrooms. Besides, many students believe that cameras can shield them from harm and bullying. However, other students see the cameras as a distraction for teachers and students, which may exert a negative influence on learning. What’s worse, parents worry the installation of cameras can be a breach of students’ privacy and may deprive students of their freedom and fun of life. As for me, I’m inclined to be in favor of the installation of security cameras in schools. For one thing, safeguarding the well-being of all students and the entire staff is a primary concern for schools today. A properly installed system of school security cameras is an important tool for ensuring the safety of students and teachers. For another, as long as the cameras are installed, they will warn those with the intention to break rules and regulations. Therefore, a lot of misconduct can be prevented. To summarize, for the schools facing challenges such as violence or vandalism on campus, school security cameras are an indispensable aid in identifying and resolving issues. Moreover, the cameras, to a large extent, serve as a precaution against the potential misbehavior.
