School teachers from Sir William Ramsay have been subjected to "bullying" as they have been targeted with abusive videos on TikTok.
A number of videos appeared on TikTok from an anonymous account named "sir.william.ramsay4", which listed the pros and cons of the teachers at the school in Hazlemere.
Teachers were cruelly branded "fat", "moody" and "two faced" as well as being told they "take up too much space" and "eat too much food".
The account has now been deleted, but not before the videos were viewed thousands of times.
Comments left on the TikTok videos branded them "rude and disrespectful". One person said: "This isn't even funny. It's actually really immature."
Another said: "Get a life, I don't know why you enjoy spending your time bashing the people who are literally giving you an education, no one is laughing."
Abusive TikTok accounts are becoming a nationwide problem - with the Association of School and College Leaders (ASCL) writing to the social media giant demanding “immediate steps” as schools believe the content is being ignored.

A statement from Sir William Ramsay headteacher Christine McLintock said: "Sir William Ramsay School is working closely with TikTok and The Safer Internet Centre to protect members of our school community."
ASCL has also raised concerns with governments in England, Wales and Northern Ireland.
According to Schools Week, a government spokesperson said it is “engaging with TikTok on the steps being taken by them to address this issue involving teachers”.
The spokesman added that “any instance of online abuse . . . should be immediately reported to the police” and it was “introducing laws which will usher in a new era of accountability for these social media companies”.
The Bucks Free Press has contacted TikTok about the incident and will provide any updates as soon as we get it.
