Joint Oireachtas Committee on Education and Skills

School Bullying and the Impact on Mental Health: Discussion (Resumed)

Dr. Angela Mazzone:

Yes, I am sorry, but I could not remember the initialism. The findings of this international report in respect of Ireland show that bullying actually increased in 2018, the period to which the data refers. Of course, the methods of assessment matter. Depending on the methods that we use to assess bullying, we can find variations. I am sorry I do not remember the exact rate of bullying perpetration and victimisation reported in this report, but I am happy to share the findings with the committee afterwards.
