Bullying is a big problem in many schools. What do you think are the causes of this? What solutions can you suggest? Give reasons for your answer and include any relevant examples from your own knowledge or experience.

School
children
are nowadays facing different social problems,
such
as stress, anxiety, and more ,importantly bullying. The
last
mentioned, it is problem can be produced by more than one cause and different solutions are needed to make big changes and improve the mental health of those who suffer harassment.
This
essay will discuss the causes and possible solutions in
this
matter.
Firstly
, it is well-known that a cause for bullying is not apparently established.
However
, most of the time being a good student with high qualifications, or simply looking or having a different
background origin

seem to be reasons for
children
bullying others in the schools.
Secondly
, other kinds of reasons could include personal feelings
such
as revenge, jealousy, the necessity of controlling others or simply non-reason apparently.
For instance
, in my experience, I suffered bullying at my
school
for a period of time and it was because of my good performance in most subjects, especially science and chemistry.
On the other hand
, by law, all schools without exception must have a behaviour policy in place that includes measures to prevent all forms of bullying among pupils.
Moreover
,
this
policy should state strict rules decided by the schools that lead to enhanced respect and good behaviour.
Furthermore
, all teachers,
children
and parents should know
this
information to motivate them to follow the
school
policy.
To sum up
,
although
there are different reasons for
school
children
to start bullying among them apparently,
this
situation can be reversed and stopped by including strict policies and rules between
children
which should be supported by teachers and parents.
