Abstract
This study investigates the relationship between
student perceptions of school climate and self reported
bullying between students. Data were
collected from 604 students in 59 regular grade
5-6 classrooms, within 20 state schools in Victoria,
Australia. A significant negative relationship was
found between measures of positive school climate
and the prevalence of student peer bullying.
Implications for classroom teachers and school
administrators are discussed. The importance of
measuring and monitoring students’ involvement
in bullying and perceptions of school climate is
emphasised.
