Case Study: Addressing Bullying in Secondary School Bullying is a pervasive issue in secondary schools, affecting students' well-being and academic performance. Patjie Secondary School, a medium-sized institution with approximately 800 students, has been grappling with a rising incidence of bullying among its students. The bullying ranges from verbal taunts and exclusion to more severe instances of physical aggression. The school's administration has recognised the urgency of addressing this issue and has initiated various anti-bullying programmes. Ongoing evaluation and adjustments to the school's strategies are essential to ensuring a sustainable and effective anti-bullying programme. The school has implemented a peer mediation programme, counselling services, and a structured disciplinary system to address bullying incidents promptly. Awareness campaigns, including guest speakers and workshops, are organised throughout the academic year to educate students on the impact of bullying. Students can report bullying incidents to teachers, school counsellors or through an anonymous online reporting system. Patjie Secondary School is actively working to create a safe and inclusive environment for its students by employing a multi-faceted approach to address and prevent bullying. Disciplinary actions for bullying may include counselling, parental involvement, and, in severe cases, suspension or expulsion. Parents are informed about the school's anti-bullying policies during orientation sessions and through regular communication channels. Workshops and informational sessions are organised for parents, providing resources and guidance on addressing bullying and supporting their children emotionally. Patjie Secondary School promotes a positive culture through anti-bullying campaigns, character education programmes, and initiatives that celebrate diversity. The school communicates its anti-bullying policies through regular assemblies, newsletters and the school's website. Teachers and staff undergo annual training sessions focused on recognising signs of bullying, effective intervention strategies, and creating a safe and inclusive classroom environment. Teachers also discuss these policies in the classroom. Victims receive immediate support from the school counsellors, and a buddy system is in place to connect them with a supportive peer. Empathy-building activities, such as group projects and team-building exercises, are integrated into the curriculum to foster positive relationships. (Basic Education, 2012).
