BUKIT MERTAJAM: The Education Ministry has launched two important guidelines for managing the issues of misconduct, especially those related to bullying and sexual harassment, in a bid to create a safe ecosystem within educational institutions.
Minister Fadhlina Sidek said both guidelines are crucial for sustaining advocacy efforts across all levels to ensure that awareness, responsibility and concern for these issues can be collectively addressed.
"We hope all members of the ministry will give their commitment to implementing these guidelines to ensure that these issues can be resolved immediately. Fadhlina said Friday’s programme was an example of the ministry’s intervention in curbing the symptoms of bullying among students by providing guidance and awareness about the harmful impact of bullying on mental and physical health, apart from educating them not to engage in such behaviour.
"In my opinion, the bullying situation in schools in this country is still under control and we already have an efficient working process to deal with this issue.
