Moreover, teacher cannot just decide to misbehave for no just cause, there must have been underline factors responsible for teacher’s misbehaviour. Therefore, factors responsible for teacher’s misbehaviour are – Poor incentive, wrong conception of teaching profession, economic regression, non-inclusive of students’ diversity and culture, work related stress. The aforementioned thus, have implications on students learning. Teacher’s misbehaviour does encourage fall in morality, low self- esteem, increase in examination malpractice and so on.
