Strategies used to counteract bullying at schools

As an education law student in Prof de Waal's courses, Wendy shared her concern about the nature and extent of bullying at especially South African public schools. Her distress culminated in a well-written Masters in Education Law. This publication is an in- depth comparative study of the strategies used to counteract bullying at schools. It provides an international perspective in that studies completed at South African schools provide an African perspective; Australian research is used to provide an Oceanian perspective; Japanese research to provide an Asian perspective; and research conducted in England is used to provide a European perspective on bullying at schools.
