Palasyo natuwa sa desisyon ng Ateneo vs bully kid

IKINATUWA ng Palasyo ang desisyon ng Ateneo de Manila University (ADMU) matapos namang ipinag-utos ang pagsipa sa estudyante mula sa Junior High Schook na sangkot sa pambubully.

Sinabi ni Presidential Spokesperson at Chief Presidential Legal  Counsel Salvador Panelo na dapat maging aral sa iba ang nangyari sa mag-aaral na sangkot sa pambubully.

“The Palace commends the school administration’s swift action on the case of this student. We note, however, that the investigation has yet to be concluded as regards the rest of those involved. While we respect ADMU’s academic freedom, we hope that it could finish the ongoing investigation the soonest and with regard to due process, in line with applicable jurisprudence on schools,” sabi ni Panelo. 

Idinagdag ni Panelo na batid ng Palasyo na maraming insidente ng pambubully ang hindi napaparusahan.

“We hope that this occurrence will serve as a reminder that bullying is something that should never be tolerated nor condoned in any civilized institution. We thus urge all public and private educational institutions in the country to establish proper mechanisms to strictly monitor the activities of their students and ensure the strict implementation of Republic Act 10627, otherwise known as the Anti-Bullying Law,” ayon pa kay Panelo.
