Bullying in our schools
Recent research into the experiences of 15 year old students internationally has been revealed through the Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA 2015) report. New Zealand does not do well at all: second to last among 51 countries. Currently 19 schools in NZ have adopted the KiVa anti-bullying approach and their data looks very promising, just as it has already shown in Finland and other countries. Finnish nationwide data shows bullying rates declining each year since the start of their KiVa implementation eight years ago.
