dc.description.abstractIntroduction: The available evidence suggests that the severity of child abuse has the propensity to propagate and harm child抯 overall development, so its early detection and intervention is critical in preventing victim from suffering severe abuse. The teachers of primary school have excellent opportunity among all the professionals to notice and act promptly in response to child abuse and neglect (CAN). Material and method: A descriptive cross- sectional survey was conducted among the Primary school teachers of Jammu City, J&K, India. A Structured Close Ended Questionnaire in two Languages (English & Hindi) comprising of ten questions was used. Results: Teachers have a positive attitude toward this great problem and consider reporting CAN as their moral responsibility but face certain barriers in performing their duties. Conclusion: There is need for formulating proper reporting guidelines of CAN for the teachers. There should be proper training programmes and continuing education programmes for the teachers for their knowledge and reporting about CAN at various levels including college curriculum.en_US
