School conflicts such as intolerance, bullying, and violence can take many forms including clashes between individuals or groups, prejudice, stereotyping, and discrimination. Bullying specifically refers to one person or group hurting another repeatedly to feel superior, and may be due to factors like appearance, abilities, race, religion, socioeconomic status, or other attributes. Victims of bullying can experience low self-esteem, poor academic performance, and even retaliate through more severe violence. High-profile incidents like the Columbine shooting show how unresolved conflicts can escalate dangerously. Surveys find that half of students in the Philippines report being bullied, highlighting that effective anti-bullying policies and education are needed.
