Recognizing that violence and indiscipline in schools involve multiple causes (cultural, socioeconomic and psychosocial), this paper seeks to analyze these phenomena in the face of teaching authority. To accomplish this, individual and open interviews were conducted with public school teachers of the Great Goiania. We tried to include teachers in the beginning of their careers, with intermediate teaching time and about to retire, from different areas of knowledge. This paper discusses theoretically the main concepts of violence, especially the symbolic violence of Michaud, opting for the adoption of a concept that considers especially physical violence. The concept of discipline is discussed from the work of Durkheim, along with the work of Yves de la Taille. Field work suggests that the outbreak of violence in schools, marked by impunity, may be stretching the limits mentioned by De la Taille, preventing the exercise of authority by the teacher with consequent injury to student learning.
