So, legally, how to define school bullying, and what circumstances are considered to meet the "standard of school bullying"? In response to the above issues, Dute News reporter interviewed lawyer Wang Qionghua, a partner of Guangdong Zhiheng Law Firm.

Lawyer: Any violation of another person’s body

can be deemed to constitute bullying

In response to the above issues, lawyer Wang Qionghua pointed out that according to the provisions of Article 21, Paragraph 2, of the "Provisions on the Protection of Minors in Schools", there are no differences between students in terms of age, age, etc. If the physically or numerically dominant party intentionally or maliciously commits the acts mentioned in the preceding paragraph against the other party, or bullies or insults the other party in other ways, causing personal injury, property loss or mental damage, it may be deemed to constitute bullying. Among them, beating, kicking, slapping, scratching, biting, pushing, pulling and other behaviors that violate others' bodies or intimidate and threaten others are typical forms of bullying. In addition, campus bullying also covers various forms including verbal insults, social exclusion, property damage, and online slander.

The criteria for filing a school bullying incident need to be judged based on the specific circumstances. If the bullying behavior violates the relevant crimes stipulated in the "Criminal Law", such as the crime of intentional injury, insult, defamation, etc., it may constitute a criminal offense and requires criminal liability according to law. Although the bullies in most campus bullying incidents are minors and cannot be held criminally responsible because they have not reached the age of criminal responsibility, my country's Juvenile Delinquency Prevention Law clearly stipulates that minors with serious bad behaviors such as beating, insulting, intimidating, and robbing As adults, you can decide to send yourself to a specialized school to receive specialized education.

In such campus bullying incidents, schools need to take active measures to prevent and respond to campus bullying. First of all, schools should establish special systems for the prevention and control of student bullying and the prevention of sexual assault and sexual harassment, establish a zero-tolerance handling mechanism for student bullying, sexual assault, and sexual harassment, and a care and support mechanism for injured students. Secondly, schools should also regularly conduct special surveys on bullying prevention and control for all students to evaluate whether there is bullying in the school. If faculty and staff discover that students are committing bullying, they should stop it promptly, provide necessary assistance and support to the victims, and provide appropriate punishment and education to the perpetrators.

Lawyer Wang Qionghua believes that campus bullying is a serious social problem that requires joint efforts from schools, families, society and the law to solve it. Through increased public awareness, education and legal measures, we can create a bullying-free school environment where every student can grow and develop in an atmosphere of safety, respect and support.
