Rasbihari international School, had its first, one of a kind presentation and discussion seminar on the topic of ‘Bullying and its repercussions’ arranged in the school for its grade 10th standard students in the school premises by psychologist, Mrs. Piyushee Amrite on 31st August, 2019..
The ‘Anti-bullying session’ turned out to be thought provoking by viewing some of the jarring statistics from India on cyber bullying, peer pressure and teasing , which in recent times has lead to increasing mental health issues in adolescents in school, increasing number of online crimes and students exposed to attitudes which promote bullying as a ‘cool’ thing.
The result of this seminar turned out to be further invigorating when, the grade 10th students in turn went to other classes from grade 8th and 9th to psycho educate, inform and provide steps to refrain from being a victim as well as a perpetrator to the act of bullying as a part of the school pledge of providing ‘Seva’.
