Maliki Osman on bullying in schools
Each case of bullying in school will be addressed sensitively so that students involved could learn from their mistakes. Schools could take both disciplinary and rehabilitative actions. But if a case is made public online and causes public concern, damages the reputation of other parties or seeks to promote only one side of the story, the Ministry of Education will have to put out the facts of the case. Second Minister for Education Maliki Osman made these points in parliament on Friday (Mar 6) in response to MPs’ questions on the Montfort Secondary bullying incident last month. He added that schools use such incidents as “teaching moments” for all students.
