According to data compiled by the Republican Pedagogical-Psychological Center, 130 complaints were received during the first ten months of the current year, 52% which concerned cases of violence perpetrated by teachers, while the remaining complaints related to interpersonal relationships among learners.
The recent increase in reports of violence and bullying in educational institutions is also attributed to growing awareness of the issue and more active identification and reporting of such cases.
The issue was addressed in a news report broadcast as part of the “Lurer” News Programme of the Public Television Company of Armenia, which highlighted the systematic efforts undertaken by the Republican Pedagogical-Psychological Center and its partner organisations, as well as the policies being developed to address the issue.
The programme presented the systemic measures being implemented to protect learners and ensure their safety, particularly the process of establishing Student Protection Teams in schools, their composition and responsibilities, and the mechanisms for ensuring their effectiveness. It also highlighted the coordinating role and importance of the Republican Pedagogical-Psychological Center in this process.
Particular emphasis was also placed on the importance of introducing mechanisms to prevent violence and bullying in schools, ensure timely and effective responses to incidents, and foster a safe, secure, and supportive learning environment.
