Abstract	Investigated attitudes of the German population towards the public awareness and prevention of child sexual abuse as well as experiences of victims and professionals with support in schools. The analysis is based on two datasets, one consisting of a representative sample of 2531 German households, the other of 104 persons calling the "Hilfetelefon sexueller Missbrauch (crisis hotline sexual abuse)". Results showed that parents consider preschools and schools to be appropriate places to discuss sexual abuse. However, victims reported that sexual abuse was rarely discussed in school and their distress and needs were often not recognized; concurrently, victims would have wished for ongoing interest of the teachers. Statements of victims and professionals revealed that teachers were often overwhelmed and insecure about how to react to (suspected) sexual abuse. It is concluded that more training is needed for teachers and other educational professionals in this field. (ZPID).
