A Bullying Intervention System: Reducing Risk and Creating Support for Aggressive Students
Allen, Kathleen P.
Preventing School Failure, v54 n3 p199-209 2010
Involvement in bullying is a contributor to student failure. The author describes a bullying intervention system that has been developed and implemented in a high school that aimed to interrupt bullying, conflict, and aggression before it escalates. A high school tried to reduce student involvement with the school's disciplinary system and advocated nonpunitive educative interventions to support student behavioral change. This attempt reflected a systemic, schoolwide response to bullying and the behaviors that can lead to bullying. (Contains 2 figures.)
