QUOTES Santos Guerra, M. A. (2006) declares: “Los cotilleos hacen público lo privado: las relaciones íntimas entre los miembros de la comunidad, las acusaciones de trato privilegiado, las acusaciones de ambición, las críticas a las innovaciones… son temas que circulan por los conductos informales de comunicación. La murmuración genera un clima negativo en el Centro ya que siempre se produce, en perjuicio de los ausentes, a través de la censura de sus acciones o intenciones”. (p.36) Benito, B. (n.d) statesthat: “(...) es evidente que cuanto más agradable sea el ambiente laboral, incluyendo las relaciones con compañeros, superiores, etc., más a gusto desarrollarán sus tareas los individuos, incluso supone una buena base para seguir aprendiendo de las experiencias compartidas” (p.6).

QUOTES According to Antúnez, S. (1999): “La acción sinérgica suele ser más efectiva y eficaz que la acción individual o que la simple adición de acciones individuales. Mediante la colaboración parece más factible mejorar las ayudas pedagógicas que proporcionamos a nuestros estudiantes, ofrecer una oferta educativa más completa y una educación más justa.” (p.94) Benito, B. (n/d) statesthat: “(...) los que se encuentran muy satisfechos en el trabajo, son también los que manifiestan mayor grado de satisfacción en sus relaciones con los compañeros” (p.13).
CONCLUSION • Is important to have a cordial background. • A positive, supportive and healthy relationship enables a better environment to work. • A cordial environment is beneficial to the relationships that teachers can have and to the whole school atmosphere. • The satisfaction that an affectionate relation can offer makes teachers happier and kind with students.
