It was concluded that parents and teachers violated the school’s private life, parents and students violated the class’s private life, and teachers violated other teachers’ private life at the state primary school. Parents were generally the ones who violated the private life of the school, class, and teachers, at private primary schools.

Implications for Research and Practice: In accordance with these results, it would be beneficial to inform teachers, administrators, students, and parents about the right of privacy and about the scope and limits of the school’s, class’s and teacher’s right to privacy. It would be useful to study, performed using a qualitative approach, in other educational institutions using quantitative research techniques.
