including in Vietnam. School violence does not only occur in male students but
also in female students; not only between students and students but also
between students and teachers, and teachers against pupils (with preschool
children). Violent acts can be physical violence (beating, pushing, etc.),
verbal violence (threats, slander) and mental violence (boycott, alienation, bad-mouthing,
etc.).

organized trainings for school units on propaganda and education on ethics and
lifestyle; prevention of school violence and child abuse in schools, making

authorities and social organizations to strengthen solutions to ensure security
and order, school safety; preventing and remedying factors that pose risks to
school safety and security; ensuring absolute physical and mental safety for
teachers and students, preschool children in educational institutions.

behavior and concept in child protection; coordinating between families and
schools in propagating and educating about gender knowledge, equipping children
with prevention and self-protection skills, especially girls, in order to
