EN

This text deals with gossip in basic schools. Once clarified various forms of gossip and rumours, the author describes the outcome of an empirical research with expert teachers. The results are based on a research of experienced teachers, using the qualitative approach and the narrative and biographical designs. The study primarily comments on how gossip can influence the expert teacher’s work and his/her identity and position within the school. As such, school gossip is not considered as a random phenomenon but rather a micro-political strategy used by teachers to gain influence and protection.
