The number of cases of bullying is increasing. It should be welcomed by the fact that the school is reporting without hiding it, but I feel that serious things are happening due to the increase in life-threatening bullying.

In some cases, due to the influence of Corona, distributed school attendance and online lessons were introduced, making it easier for children who had difficulty attending school to get involved. There is a need for learning tailored to each child and for creating a safe place in the school. "
