Inappropriate posts on "BeReal" also in educational settings; woman teacher in her 20s says, "I posted without thinking deeply"

An elementary school teacher in Sendai posted a BeReal photo from home that inadvertently exposed a work PC screen showing the school name and a colleague’s name.

The post was deleted, but it had already spread on social media, raising concerns about information leakage and privacy.

The Sendai Board of Education apologized and took steps including interviews, explanations to parents, sharing the case within the school, and reinforcing service rules.

The incident highlights the need for strict SNS use and personal information management in schools.
