No country can achieve inclusive and equitable quality education if learners experience violence in school. School violence and bullying can also seriously harm the health and well-being of children and adolescents with the adverse effects persisting into adulthood. This report has been prepared by UNESCO and the Institute of School Violence and Prevention at Ewha Womans University for the International Symposium on School Violence and Bullying: From Evidence to Action, Seoul, Republic of Korea, 17 – 19 January 2017. It aims to provide an overview of the most up-to-date available data on the nature, extent and impact of school violence and bullying and initiatives to address the problem. The symposium is one of a series of international meetings UNESCO has organised to address school violence and bullying and it is intended to promote evidence-based action by educators, policy makers, professionals and practitioners in the education, health and other sectors. Consequently, this report aims to provide education sector stakeholders with a framework for planning and implementing effective programmes to prevent and respond to school violence and bullying as part of wider efforts to address violence against children. The symposium represents an important opportunity for the international community to determine how it will take action to implement and follow up on the recommendations of the UN Secretary-General and the Special Representative of the UN Secretary-General on Violence against Children on protecting children and young people from violence and bullying, and to consider how to utilise existing data and evidence for monitoring school violence and bullying and the effectiveness of responses to it. UNESCO and the Institute of School Violence and Prevention at Ewha Womans University hope that this report will make a crucial contribution to raising

    09-Kelloway-4838.qxd 12/19/2005 3:53 PM Page 169 9 School Violence Irvin Sam Schonfeld book on workplace violence requires a chapter on school violence. A Schools are where teachers and children work. One of the goals of the National Educational Goals Panel (2000), an independent agency of the executive branch of the federal government, is the following: Every local educational agency will develop and implement a policy to ensure that all schools are free of violence and the unauthorized presence of weapons. The goal applies to the safety of students, faculty, and staff. The purpose of this chapter is threefold. First, the chapter summarizes what is known about the prevalence of violence and weapons in U.S. schools. Other prob- lematic behaviors that plague schools, including verbally assaultive behavior and drug use, are not addressed. Second, the chapter examines theories that bear on school violence and the empirical evidence linked to those theories. Third, the chapter looks at attempts to prevent school violence and, conse- quently, the suffering school violence causes. Prevalence of Violence __________________________________ and Weapons in the Schools Before reviewing the literature on the prevalence of violence and weapons in schools (in this section I limit prevalence findings to the 1990s and later), it Author’s Note: I thank Pearl Knopf Schonfeld for her editorial suggestions and Mark Davies and Lynn Mollick for comments on specific sections of the chapter. 169 09-Kelloway-4838.qxd 12/19/2005 3:53 PM Page 170 170 SOURCES AND FORMS OF WORKPLACE VIOLENCE is important to note a number of obstacles to accurately ascertaining the occurrence of violence.

  • Pre-Service Teachers' Knowledge and Attitudes Regarding School-Based
    Pre-service Teachers’ Knowledge and Attitudes Regarding School-Based Bullying Katrina Craig University of Western Ontario David Bell University of Western Ontario Alan Leschied University of Western Ontario Abstract Pre-service teachers responded to two questionnaires exploring perceptions of school violence. Responses to the “Teachers’ Attitudes about Bullying” and “Trainee Teachers’ Bullying Attitudes” questionnaires suggest that teachers across all academic divisions view bullying as a serious concern with implications for their role within the profession. There were considerable differences regarding what was defined as bullying, with variability related to the potential of intervening to end the violence. Covert forms of bullying including relational, homophobic, and cyber were viewed as less serious than overt violence and therefore less worthy of attention. The research findings point to the importance of providing pre-service teachers with training regarding anti-violence strategies. Résumé De futurs enseignants ont répondu à deux questionnaires explorant les perceptions de la violence scolaire. Les réponses aux questionnaires sur les «Attitudes des enseignants face à l'intimidation et le harcèlement » et les« Attitudes intimidantes des enseignants stagiaires » suggèrent que les enseignants, dans toutes les divisions académiques, voient l'intimidation et le harcèlement comme un problème sérieux avec des implications pour leur rôle au sein de la profession. Il y avait des différences considérables en ce qui concerne la définition du mot « intimidation », avec des variances liées au potentiel d'intervention pour mettre fin à la violence. Des formes dissimulées d'intimidation, y compris relationnelle, homophobe, et la cyberintimidation, étaient considérées comme moins graves que la violence manifeste et donc moins dignes d'attention.

  • Bullying at School: Recommendations for Teachers and Parents
    Practical Recommendations and Interventions: Bullying 1 BULLYING AT SCHOOL: RECOMMENDATIONS FOR TEACHERS AND PARENTS Understand what bullying looks like. Bullying is commonly defined as the long- standing physical or psychological abuse of a student who is unable to defend himself by either an individual or group of other students. Most researchers estimate that between 14 and 20% of students in schools will experience bullying at least once during their academic career (Elinoff, Chafouleas & Sassu, 2004). Outcomes for both bullies and their victims are bleak; victims of bullying are more likely than non-victims to report physical and mental health problems, including psychosomatic complaints, and contemplate suicide. Bullies themselves are more likely to drop out of school, spend some amount of time in prison, and become abusive spouses (Elinoff, Chafouleas & Sassu, 2004). General Recommendations for Teachers and School Faculty: 1. Become familiar with the school’s definition of bullying, bullying prevention policies, and the code of conduct. This will ensure that the same policy is being enforced throughout the school. 2. If available, attend a bullying training prevention program or in-service in order to learn more about bullying and their obligations as a teacher related to this issue. 3. Clearly explain to your class what behavior you consider to be bullying. Establish clear rules against bullying and define both desirable and unacceptable behavior. 4. Educate students on certain issues related to bullying. Specifically, raise awareness by providing students with information about different participant roles and group mechanisms involved in bullying. Also, emphasize that certain beliefs about bullying are false, such as the belief that bullied students are at least partly to blame for their victimization, that bullying makes the victims tougher, and that teasing is simply done “in fun.” 5.

Agnich) ABSTRACT Bullying, defined as any unwanted aggressive behavior(s) by another youth or group of youths who are not siblings or current dating partners that involves an observed or perceived power imbalance and is repeated multiple times or is highly likely to be repeated, is becoming an epidemic in our schools, with rates of victimization rising (Donegan, 2012). This thesis examines mental health programs already established within schools, as well as schools where students do not have access to mental health resources and compares the amount of violence that is perpetrated within these schools. Next, this study explores the relationship between bullying, victimization and perpetration, and mental health, which is often very stigmatized in our society.

  • National Institute of Justice Report: Summary of School Safety Statistics
    U.S. Department of Justice Office of Justice Programs National Institute of Justice JULY 2017 NATIONAL INSTITUTE OF JUSTICE REPORT Summary of School Safety Statistics MARY POULIN CARLTON NIJ’s Comprehensive School Safety Initiative The Comprehensive School Safety Initiative (CSSI) is a research-focused initiative that brings together the nation’s best minds to increase the safety of schools nationwide. The initiative was a response to disturbing, high-profile incidents of school violence. Schools are mostly safe places — but when violence does occur, it can have far-reaching ramifications. CSSI is an investment in developing knowledge about the root causes of school violence, developing strategies for increasing school safety, and rigorously evaluating innovative school safety strategies through pilot programs. CSSI projects aim to: 1) Identify and understand the potential root causes and consequences of school violence and its impact on school safety. 2) Increase the safety of schools nationwide by developing a solid foundation of knowledge and best practices that can be sustainably implemented through individualized school safety programs, policies, and activities. 3) Help identify matters internal and external to the school that may result in harm to students, teachers, staff, and schools. 4) Implement programs, policies, and practices that improve school safety and climate, focus on the school environment, or enhance educational and other outcomes for students and schools. 5) Identify effective strategies to respond to and resolve safety issues faced by schools and students. 6) In collaboration with key partners from education, law enforcement, behavioral/mental health, and social work, develop and test a comprehensive framework for school safety.

The sample is composed of 1062 secondary education students of both sexes between 12 and 18 years old. The results of the multivariate analysis show no interactions, but they do show main effects of the group and gender variables. Severe cyberbullies have greater rejection of institutional authority, transgression of norms, and direct and relational violent school behaviors toward peers. Boys have more favorable attitudes toward social norm transgression, and they participate more than girls in direct violent school behaviors involving direct confrontation with the victim. Regression analyses reveal that the study variables predict cyberbullying. These results and their implications are discussed. Keywords: cyberbullying, perpetrators, attitude toward authority, school violence. Resumen El objetivo principal del estudio es analizar las diferencias entre estudiantes involucrados en situaciones de cyberbullying (no implicados, ocasionales, severos) en su actitud hacia la autoridad institucional y conducta violenta escolar directa y relacional, teniendo en cuenta la interacción con el sexo.

  • Policy Brief and Recommendations Strengthening Efforts to Prevent And
    COVID-19: Policy Brief and Recommendations Strengthening efforts to prevent and respond to school-related gender-based violence as schools reopen July 2020 An opportunity for action against school-related gender- based violence As education systems around the world begin to reopen, schools must be prepared to mitigate and respond to gender-based violence in and around schools, and provide support for those children who have experienced violence in the context of school closures. School reopening offers an opportunity for governments, education officials and teachers to reset the clock and take a zero-tolerance approach to violence, including corporal punishment, peer-to- peer psychological and physical violence, or sexual harassment and violence. Strong commitment from school leadership is needed, through school-based policies as well as strong reporting and accountability mechanisms. This policy brief is targeted at policymakers and practitioners working in gender, education and child protection fields. It draws from emerging evidence on the gendered implications of COVID-19 on violence as well as research from previous health emergencies regarding the impacts of school closures on gender-based violence. Working on the principle of ‘Build Back Better’, this brief may be used to advocate for improved attention to school- related gender-based violence (SRGBV). The entry points for action identified by this brief complement the Framework for Reopening Schools (UNESCO, UNICEF, World Bank and World Food Programme), the related Safe Back to School Practitioners Guide (Global Education Cluster) and Reopening Schools Safely (Safe to Learn campaign) providing more detailed guidance on how education systems can prevent and respond to gender-based violence in and around schools.
