Now a Form to Deal with Bullying Cases

The Central Board of Secondary Education has come up with a new way to deal with the cases of bullying prevalent in schools. The Board wants to form a strong policy against bullying, a serious issue for quite a long time.

The form can be accessed online on the CBSE website. It comprises two sets of questionnaires - one for students and the other for principals, teachers and parents. Each questionnaire consists of questions which deal with the behaviour of students, the frequency of bullying cases reported, the places where bullying occurs and so on.

The identities of the students who fill up the form will be kept confidential so that students can narrate their experience without fear.
