on september 3, a netizen posted that a middle school in puning, guangdong, issued a letter of commitment against school bullying, which stated that "if school bullying occurs, we will resolutely not take photos or record videos." on september 4, the puning municipal education bureau responded to the media that the situation was true and that it had ordered the school to withdraw the letter of commitment and make corrections.
the school requires students and parents to sign a letter of commitment against school bullying, with the original intention of preventing and reducing school bullying incidents. however, the requirement of "no photos, no videos" obviously runs counter to this original intention. as one netizen said: "does this mean that if you are bullied, you can't keep evidence?"
at present, school bullying incidents are generally difficult to discover, collect evidence, and identify. preserving evidence through video or pictures is an effective way to discover school bullying, and it is also an effective way for the bullied to obtain evidence and be rescued. in many actual school bullying incidents, it can also be found that many of them have attracted public attention and attention and have been resolved through relevant videos and pictures. requiring not to take photos or record videos when school bullying occurs is equivalent to blocking this channel.
the school forced students to make such a "promise", a puzzling reverse operation that inevitably gave rise to the assumption that the school was "afraid of the bullying incident being leaked and affecting its reputation". it is understandable that the public is concerned about whether the school has the willingness and ability to handle the incident in a timely and fair manner when bullying occurs.
in reality, some schools do have the mentality of "don't air your dirty laundry in public" when facing campus bullying, and are used to hiding the problem and solving it "internal". however, this approach will only encourage the bullies to be more arrogant and cause "secondary harm" to the bullied.
school bullying is by no means a "family scandal" but a serious social problem that needs to be taken seriously by the whole society. as the "first responsible person" for preventing and controlling school bullying, the attitude, response and measures of the school have a direct and clear guiding significance.
in the movie "clause 20", a teacher described school bullying by saying: "the children who are bullied are unwilling to admit it, and the children who see it dare not stand up and identify it." not being a victim or a bystander is a requirement not only for students but also for schools. in the face of school bullying, the most important thing for schools is to face the problem directly and intervene decisively, rather than covering it up. this is not only the responsibility of the school, but also teaching students how to face bullying. schools should give students more support, encourage them to bravely stand up and say "no" to school bullying, and deal with bullying in a timely manner when they find signs of bullying, to ensure that they get timely help.
in may this year, the ministry of education issued a notice, proposing specific work requirements for the special action to prevent and control campus violence and student bullying in various places. among them, whether it is requiring schools to publish bullying prevention and control telephone numbers, email addresses, and telephone numbers of deputy principals for law and security, and to implement the first-question-first-responsibility system for calls reporting situations, or requiring full coverage of video surveillance in hidden places such as corridors, rooftops, and storage rooms, it is hoped that schools will play a key role, strictly prevent "hidden corners", and expose campus bullying to the sun.
opposing school bullying should be fair and justified. only when the whole society changes its mindset, faces it bravely, and works together to tackle this "hard bone", can we form a greater force to protect "young you".
