  The protection of minors is related to the future of the country and the revitalization of the nation. In 2021 alone, many laws and regulations concerning the protection of minors have been promulgated.

The various laws and regulations promulgated this year aim to integrate the forces of all parties, actively promote the participation of all parties in the protection of minors, and build a "six in one" of family protection, school protection, social protection, network protection, government protection, and judicial protection. The new era of minor protection work pattern.

As an indispensable link, school protection not only undertakes the important task of ideological and moral education for minors, but also improves the school protection system to protect the personal safety and physical and mental health of students in school.

  In recent years, many cases of minor rights violations exposed by the media have occurred on campus, such as campus bullying, sexual assault, and deliberate injury cases around campuses, all of which have put forward higher requirements for campus safety.

In responding to school bullying incidents, the school assumes the primary responsibility for protecting minors. On the one hand, the school must take measures to prevent problems before they occur and actively carry out publicity activities on the rule of law; on the other hand, the school must actively cooperate with other agencies and draw on the help of all sectors of society. Power to deal with bullying incidents and play an educational and warning role for students.

As early as 2016, the Ministry of Education, in conjunction with other departments, issued the "Guiding Opinions on Prevention and Treatment of Bullying and Violence among Primary and Secondary School Students". The "Opinions" have played a good guiding role in the prevention and handling of school bullying incidents.

Articles 20 and 21 of the newly revised Law on the Prevention of Juvenile Delinquency further refine the provisions on the prevention and treatment of school bullying.

  In order to effectively respond to the phenomenon of sexual assault and harassment on campus, and effectively prevent the use of professional convenience to commit acts of infringement on minors, the school should also ensure that the entry of campus staff is well, and all those who have committed rape, indecency, organized prostitution, etc. Those who commit a series of criminal acts of sexually assaulting minors are subject to a "zero tolerance" system.

The Law on the Protection of Juveniles provides for an entry inquiry system for close contact with minors. The school should strengthen cooperation with various functional departments, perform duties in accordance with the law, and actively carry out entry inquiries for campus staff, and cooperate with other departments to form minors. The big pattern of human protection.

  In addition, the legal education of teachers should be strengthened within the school.

Regarding the high incidence and concealment of abuse of minors, the newly revised Law on the Protection of Minors and the "Opinions on Establishing a Compulsory Reporting System for Cases of Violation of Minors (Trial)" promulgated on May 7, 2020 clearly stipulate The subject of mandatory reporting obligations and the liability for breach of reporting obligations.

School teachers, as a group in close contact with students, have the convenience of discovering abused students in a timely manner, so they are one of the statutory subjects of mandatory reporting obligations.

In order to implement this mandatory reporting responsibility, the school should provide all teachers with special training on the protection of minors, so that teachers can understand when to report, how to report, to whom, and other specific measures, in order to better protect minors.

  The rule of law campus is an important part of the rule of law society, and the construction of a rule of law campus is one of the important links in the construction of the rule of law in China, which is of great significance for promoting the process of comprehensive rule of law.

From a safe campus to a legal campus, it means that the focus of work includes not only the construction of campus safety, but also legal education for minors, the practice of the rule of law, and the cultivation of revolutionary successors who respect the law, abide by the law and know the law.

In the face of the new situation, the Law on the Protection of Minors and the Regulations on the Protection of Minors’ Schools have already responded to some extent. Legislation and amendments have taken the first step towards good law and good governance.

Therefore, it is necessary to innovate working methods to do a good job in the construction of the rule of law campus, shape the concept of the rule of law of minors, and create a safe and rule of law campus.

  1. Renew the concept and cultivate the rule of law as a kind of belief.

The publicity and education of the rule of law on campus should closely center on Xi Jinping's rule of law thought, select vivid cases, and unfold in vivid forms.

It is necessary to start with a baby, grasp early and practical, change the concept, attach importance to the rule of law education in kindergarten and elementary school, cultivate the concept of the rule of law for minors from an early age, and cultivate the concept of the rule of law into a belief, which can effectively prevent campus bullying and campus sex. The emergence of infringements and other problems.

It is necessary to integrate the red gene and patriotic gene into the rule of law education, give full play to the subtle role of red culture and traditional culture, and cultivate revolutionary successors who respect the law and know the law.

  2. Gather strength and help the rule of law campus.

With the school as the main body, a series of cultural activities on the rule of law are held, such as keynote speeches on the rule of law campus, legal knowledge contests, etc.

With the help of social forces, in cooperation with judicial organs, experts from public security, courts, procuratorates and other departments are invited to watch court trials, moot courts and other activities to integrate the rule of law concept into campus cultural life, and form a campus rule of law culture imperceptibly.

At the same time, we can make good use of the role of social organizations. We can set up a duty system, contact off-campus volunteer service agencies or township (street) minor service workstations to be on duty on campus, and carry out personalized assistance work for individual problem teenagers to support minors The legal umbrella promotes the construction of a safe campus.

On the one hand, pay attention to the use of Internet of Things, 5G, big data and other technologies to improve the construction level of campus safety facilities, so that campus security video surveillance should be fully equipped and scientifically connected; on the other hand, pay attention to the use of modern information technology to integrate campus governance element data The standardization of management data, promote the integration of teaching network and campus management network, and gradually build an "Internet +" campus governance model.

  4. Distinctive characteristics, to build a campus rule of law culture, the focus is on practice.

In addition to specialized legal education, teachers should also intersperse legal education in the teaching process of various disciplines.

At the same time, it is not enough to teach students theoretical knowledge, but also to improve students' practical ability. Therefore, legal education should not be confined to the classroom, and the practice of legal education should be increased.

For example, the police school can jointly carry out traffic safety, anti-drug education and other school promotion activities, so that common sense of law can be deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

  The realization of the Chinese dream of the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation is inseparable from the comprehensive rule of law in China. The rule of law in China cannot be separated from the construction of a society under the rule of law, and a society under the rule of law cannot be separated from the construction of a law-based campus.

In the face of new problems in the new era, we must always use new ideas as guidance, through innovative legal education models, cultivate students’ values ​​of the rule of law, build a campus rule of law with a campus rule of law culture, prop up the umbrella of the rule of law for minors, and help promote the comprehensive rule of law. Help realize the Chinese dream of national rejuvenation.
