COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF DOMESTIC AND FOREIGN APPROACHES TO BULLYING PREVENTION IN EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTIONS: LEGAL AND SOCIAL ASPECTS

This article examines various methods of combating bullying in educational institutions in foreign countries and Kazakhstan. The concepts of bullying and cyberbullying appeared relatively recently in the Code of Administrative Offenses of Kazakhstan. With the development of technology, harassment in modern schools occurs not only directly toward the victim but also indirectly through the use of devices and gadgets. Cyberbullying is just as dangerous to students’ mental health as traditional bullying. The consequences of harassment in educational institutions can vary, including severe cases such as driving a person to suicide. Since the number of suicides committed by adolescents in Kazakhstan shows no tendency to decrease, we propose adopting both legislative and programmatic measures to combat violence within the walls of general education schools.
