1.1 Background
School bullying is one of the big problems in student life. Most student have experienced bullying or feel bullying while they at school. The consequences of this problem can happen for a long time. It can make the victim feel helpless, lonely, scared or upset. Moreover, they may lose the confidence and striving in their school life. Gradually, it makes they don’t want to go to school anymore.
1.2 Purpose
This report aims to show how school bullying happened at school and
According to the National Center for Educational Statistics, in 2016 it was reported that one in five students has been or are being bullied (Bullying Statistics, 2018). Bullying is becoming more and more of an issue having short term and long-term effects to not only the victims and their families, but it can have effects on the bully themselves and the community. In the video, “Bullying: What every adult needs to know”, it discusses bullying and the impact and consequences of bullying to the victims and even the bullies themselves. The video also discusses the importance of parents, the school, and the community involvement to stop and prevent bullying by giving advice and the tools needed to help both the victims and the bullies.

Bullying is unwanted behavior that causes a child to feel isolated and alone. In order for an act to be considered bullying the act has to be, or be able to be repeated multiple times. Bullying can be done verbally by teasing, name-calling, taunting or inappropriate sexual comments directed at someone to purposefully upset them. Bullying can be done socially by isolating students on purpose, telling other students not to play with them, spreading rumors about students or attempting to embarrass them in public. Bullying can also be done physically by hitting, kicking, spitting, tripping, breaking property or making rude gestures. Most bullying is done during unstructured times such as recess, lunch, in the hallways, before school or after school. There is typically less adult supervision during those times. All of these things are meant to bring down the self-esteem of others. Bullying can have very serious effects on both students being bullied as well as the bully themselves.
School should be a place where students learn social and emotional skills as well as academics lessons but bullying has become a prominent issue in schools and it’s even occurring online. Bullying can be direct or indirect and it can affect every student in the school. Bullying undermine children’s safety, senses of belonging, feelings of value, and it also hamper their ability to learn. It can also create a climate of fear and disrespect that spreads throughout the school and even extends to the community. Bullying is different from conflict, fights, or disagreements. According to (Boston Public School), Bullying is a form of emotional or physical abuse that has three defining characteristics:
Over the past couple of years, bullying has reached an all-time high around the world. Bullying is an act of someone treated another person poorly either through actions or words. It is something that can be found anywhere and it can happen to people of all ages. It is most commonly found in students’ that attend elementary school, junior high, and high school. In this essay, it discusses a study performed on students grades five through eight on bullying in elementary and junior high.
Over the past couple of years, the issue of bullying in the educational environment has gained national attention, various laws have been put in place to prevent bullying. The methods of bullying have changed from cyberbullying, verbal bullying, and physical bullying. Bullying has been known to effect a student’s metal, social, and physical capabilities. Some of the consequences of bullying are suicide, depression, and lack of self-esteem.
Bullying has become one of the hottest controversy since the past decade. Bullies are the people who intimidate others because they feel superior from their peers and believe they are higher than anybody else. Moreover, they think that intimidating the people who cannot fight back is funny, but, bullies do not know how the victim’s feeling and how they recover from the pain (“11 Facts”). On the other hand, the victims are the people who are scared to stand up and speak up for themselves. Bullying can be an aggressive behavior that causes harm and distress to others. It can be repeated over time until they feel helpless (Harpaz). It occurs mostly in schools due to imbalance of strength and power. Bullying can have various effects on people’s life due to lower self-confidence, depression, and rebellious act.
Bullying has become a widespread social issue that continues to affect adolescents as an unwanted and aggressive behavior involving a form of repetition and power imbalance (1). This condition has become widely prevalent in schools and affects students both emotionally and physically with the possibility of long term effects. The common forms of bullying in a school environment can either be physical, verbal, social or technological. Correspondingly, it impacts students despite gender, race, class or orientation. The statistics has become disheartening and perplexed as a large number of bullying amongst adolescents occurs within a school environment or related function. One out of three adolescents has admitted to being bullied or participating
The climate of the school and its environment can negatively affect student's learning and also delay the ability of students to learn. Students may also feel insecure and tend not to like school very well if they are victims of bullying. While bullying is considered to be a serious problem that will impact the school experience of all children involved, it will also affect these children emotionally. We must address this issue in school settings in order to prevent negative outcomes for students in relating to impacts on their emotional, and mental health, academic learning, and social development. This paper will talk about the background of bullying, the factors that contribute to bullying, two prevention and three intervention techniques and strategies that can be used to help minimize and reduce bullying inside the school
Bullying is used by many people around the world to take control of someone’s emotional and physical state with the intention of hurting them. The threat of bullying affects almost everyone and can even affect the school system. Studies have shown that over 3.2 million students are affected by bullying each year (“11 facts about bullying). With schools from all around the globe having to focus on bullying and how to prevent it from happening, it takes away a large amount of focus on the education(Christine).
Thesis statement: Due to the fact that problem of bullying negatively affects students' learning ability, their health and the entire school climate society should take definite and urgent measures to solve it.
Bullying is a very popular disease among the school students today. Bullies may be specified as endangered species who make ridicule of others for their own fun. Although life is a journey and a tough fight, but, not everyone’s a fighter. Students with money power try to harm other students and cease their dignity and innocence for the entire school life. To discuss this current topic, I have divided my sample paper into 3 sections specifying the practice of bullying and how we can prevent it and save the children from facing this annoyance. Bullying means to intimidate other students (in school or college context) to do what one wants. Typically, Bullying is similar to ragging whereby group of people with high profile or superiority or seniority do pillory or scoff at the benign students. One should never do a wrong thing to make friends. Just for the sake of impressing other classmates, one should not attempt anything wrong that may harm a credulous student in anyway.
As bullying continues to rise amongst children of all ages, it is absolutely crucial to not only find out what implications being victimized have on a child, but also find possible ways to eliminate the negative outcomes they endure. Current research has already gathered an abundance of information surrounding the effects bullying has on its victims. One area of current focus on bullying and victimization is the health effects. Serious negative mental, emotional and physical health outcomes have been discovered. Now based on this information, researchers need to push forward and try to find ways to decrease the negative outcomes not simply look at what the effects of bullying are.
School bullying and bullying as a whole has become a growing concern. The need for more intervention is more recognized, as incidents of bullying and inappropriate acts towards others occur in places outside of the classroom. This literature takes a closer look at bullying in schools. Olwesus (2013) states “the field of bullying research is to some extent plagued by problems, disagreements, and unresolved issues” (p.752). Whether if anyone will agree on the root of bullying, the fact remains that bullying has to be examined at its very core to remedy the matter before it becomes a bigger concern. There is a dire need for intervention based programs to be set in place to address the fact the act of bullying has lasting effects on the bully and the victim. When intervention programs are put into place to address bullying, the act of bullying decreases due to the gained understanding of the effects.
By better understanding the complex nature of bullying, we can improve the school environment by decreasing or eliminating the action of bullying and create a safe and successful atmosphere for the entire school. The more that is known about the issues associated with bullying, the more educators can do to prevent it and develop better understandings of how to treat bullies and victims. This paper will examine the different types of bullying, negative effects, and motivators behind the action. In addition, it will also discuss some profiles of bullies and victims. The goal is to further help educators understand bullying, so they can build more effective anti-bullying programs. Furthermore, the information gathered can potentially be useful in raising awareness on this topic and for creating new policies on bullying.
Bullying is the act to threat a weaker being to make them do something and hurt them emotionally or physically which later on affects a victim’s everyday life. From the looks of it, some students, especially those who are victims may have not seen the end of their situation yet. Some studies today found out that most students in grade school and high school have experienced different forms of bullying either from their peers or from their teachers in actual like
