The Peel District School board has stated, “Another challenge is training. A 2010 report on Ontario’s publicly funded schools said “teachers are often the first people to whom youth turn for help” but “(they) have very low levels of knowledge about mental health issues, and mental health has not been a priority for professional development,” (Scallan & Allick, 2011) This statement is describing the lack of resources that schools have for dealing with both bullying and mental health concerns which can lead to students not receiving the proper help for bullying situations.

Challenging Arguments

“The brief notes that school leaders ‘have no clear, cohesive body of law to guide their regulation of student online speech originating off campus that disrupts, or reasonably could be forecasted to disrupt, the school environment, or interferes with the rights of others.’ Two cases that were on appeal from the 3rd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Philadelphia that had found online harassment was outside of the scope of schools' authority,” (Wojcik, 2012) that argues that when bullying occurs off of school property, the school should not interfere or is uninformed of their responsibility.

“Students have been charged for their role in bullying, but the lack of a legal definition of bullying defines a key difficulty in criminalizing bullying: What standard should be used? Or is the student charged with criminal harassment only when the bullied student becomes sufficiently fearful for her life?” (Dragan, 2013) which addresses that children or the “bully” will be held liable for their actions but only once the actions become severe. Due to the vague definition of “bullying”, criminalizing bullying is a very difficult task to do.

“Teachers have very low levels of knowledge about mental health issues”
