Abstract
The reality of the still widespread cases of criminalization of teachers by parents of students or families in several regions should be an important concern to develop policies to provide protection for teachers. This study aims to reveal what policies need to be developed in an effort to provide legal protection to teachers from criminalization cases. Through socio legal research methods through data collection tools for interviews and focused discussions, the results of the study revealed that the criminalization of teachers in carrying out their professional duties still occurred, especially when the research was conducted in Pontianak City, West Kalimantan Province. Based on the facts of the problems faced in overcoming the teacher criminalization case there is no clear mechanism in handling it, so that each party takes its own steps in its resolution. Therefore we need a strategic step in the form of the importance of regulating a policy to establish a legal service institution and teacher protection in order to realize equitable teacher protection.
