Schools have a responsibility to provide a safe environment for the students in their care. If your child is being bullied on school grounds, several parties could be held liable, including:
The student who is bullying your child;
The parents of the child who is responsible for the bullying; and
The school staff, officials, and school boards.
In most cases, the liability is on the student responsible for the bullying. However, if the school knew about the bullying and failed to provide a duty of care in intervening, they may be liable. Contact a legal professional for advice if your child is suffering harm from bullying at school.
