Educational Intervention Program For The Prevention Of Bullying Behaviour In Primary School

School is the place where students develop their own strengths, receive new knowledge, form their own personality, make them perceive reality and the world around us. Unfortunately, nowadays bullying behaviour persists and is very common in the school environment, the environment that society relies on the most in forming a personality to which the future belongs. Bullying is a form of abuse, detrimental to the well-being and healthy and harmonious development of pupils. It can be a simple form of neglect or it can extend to complex forms of physical, emotional and sexual abuse. Bullying is characterised by the behaviour or attitude of repeatedly and intentionally 'bullying' as a way of gaining power over another person. This behaviour affects all students, from the person who bullies, those who are victims to those who witness it. The aim of the present study was to implement an educational intervention programme to prevent and combat this form of bullying behaviour in primary school students. The results showed that both the participants of the experimental group and the participants of the control group were involved in these bullying behaviours. After participating in the activities carried out in the proposed intervention programme, the participants of the experimental group obtained lower averages for the bullying subscale and the aggression subscale, but statistically significant differences were not found in the threat scale.
