HISTORY
Our round table was set up in 1995 following a symposium on violence in the school environment.
OUR STRENGTH
Our table’s strength lies in its members, who come from diverse backgrounds and have
a range of complementary skills related to violence and bullying prevention.
VIOLENCE
The word “violence” means any intentional demonstration of verbal, written, physical, psychological or sexual force which causes distress and injures, hurts or oppresses a person by attacking their psychological or physical integrity or well-being, or their rights or property.
Article 13.3 of the Education Act
Bullying
The word “bullying” means any repeated direct or indirect behaviour, comment, act or gesture, whether deliberate or not, including in cyberspace, which occurs in a context where there is a power imbalance between the persons concerned and which causes distress and injures, hurts, oppresses, intimidates or ostracizes.
