Evil towards children means maltreatment and suffering caused by this. In Finland this concerned phenomenon is appeared as a wide and serious problem. The topic is significant also in teachers profession and it is noticed also in teacher education discourse, such are legislative texts and researches that discourses what teachers should possess. Nevertheless it is observed such a progression where, as an outcome, class teacher education has been detached from school reality. This shows up as a decontextualization and disciplinization of class teacher education. Side by this progression the professionalization and scientification has been confirmed and attached to these particular processes. The theoretic framework and concept of this master's thesis is based by Hannu Simolas (1995) doctoral thesis and researches after it, where he examined finnish teachership in educational state discourse. The ambition of this master's thesis was to find out how the content that discourses the evil towards children are externalized in class teacher educations curriculums. Material of this thesis was class teacher educations curriculums for years 2014 – 2015. Analysis of the material was made by using content analysis. The curriculums of class teacher educations nearly say nothing about the evil towards children. For this part the class teacher education has been decontextualized. It means it has detached from the context of evil that children faces. In the light of the teacher education discourse that appears in this thesis, can be proposed that class teacher educations can not answer the demands that perceives the knowing and understanding the evil towards children prominent for the contention of teachers profession.
