Let's Beat Bullying Together

Description

Peer bullying can be described as intentionally damaging and hurting others, a single person in the same age range of children or adolescents, physically, verbally and/ or behaviorally. Schools are one of the places where children and young people interact intensively. So, peer bullying is most common in schools.Research shows that approximately half (150 million students) of 12-15 year-olds are exposed to peer violence in and around the school (UNICEF - 06 September 2018). It means approximately one out of every two students was exposed to peer bullying. It is not different in our school and our partners' schools. According to the survey results, we need to study this subject to provide the best school atmosphere for teaching and learning. Although there have been long-term studies about peer bullying in the institutions of our collaboration, it is obvious that we cannot meet the needs of our schools in this regard. For this reason, as 5 schools in different places of Europe, we aim to minimize the problems caused by peer bullying in our schools, to create a positive school climate and a prosperous learning environment in our schools, and to contribute to the goal of raising quality citizens who respect the lives of others, which is one of our schools' missions. To reach our goals, we decided to create our project of European Schools Fight Against Bullying. Within the scope of our project, which is planned to start on 01/10/2020 and last for 24 months, 2 teachers and 4 students from each school determined by the selection criteria, will join the mobilities held in 5 different European countries. In total, 10 teachers and 20 students will join the mobilities actively and travel to other countries. Firstly, our participants will carry the experiences, knowledge and new methods and techniques they have learned in other countries to our institutions, they will then share this with the whole student body and staff of the school when they turn back. Then they will also share them with the institutions that have similar problems in our provinces.In case of acceptance of our project, as the pre-mobility activities we can summarize them as to announce the acceptance of our project, to identify the participants before mobilities in a fair and transparent way, to sign a contract with the participants, to give the language course to the participants, to purchase airplane tickets, to determine the place of accommodation and to make the necessary reservations, to inform the guests about the destination and to prepare for the mobility in high level of motivation. In the scope of during- mobility activities, in brief, the program consists of travel, accommodation in hotels, 5-day training and cultural activities to be provided to us by the hosting country, receipt of certificates and return. In the context of post-mobility activities, in summary, there are some activities like sharing of experiences gained through seminars in our institution and other institutions in our province, distribution of educational materials such as brochures, booklets, pens, calendars and training CDs, dissemination activities in the newspapers and web sites through press institutions, activities such as comparison with pre-mobility situations by applying the final test and writing the final report.The objectives of our project are;- to reduce peer bullying problems our schools by at least 10%- to create a positive school climate and prosperous learning environment in our schools- to raise citizens who respect the rights of others and make empathy a way and an understanding of life- to integrate new methods and techniques in Europe into our institutions' curriculum and strategy- to reduce early school dropout due to peer violence and to contribute to the goal of reducing early school drop-out below 10%, one of the 2020 European educational goals- to contribute to the development of our teachers on their way to becoming 21st century teachers and to increase European citizenship awareness- to improve the language skills of our staff and give them the opportunity to use languages in real lifeThe expected results and long-term benefits of our project are;- In our schools, the problems caused by peer bullying will be minimized and thanks to it, the training provided in a positive atmosphere free of problems, education and training will be conducted more efficiently.- As we move away from violence, our students who come together in an environment where tolerance, justice and respect increase, will come to school and return to their homes happily, thus we will prevent absenteeism, encourage continuity and reduce early school dropout.- Through this project, we will contribute to raising respectful and harmonious individuals.- With the contribution of this project, we will raise new generations with high creative thinking and problem solving skills.- Entrepreneurial spirit of our staff and students will develop.
