School violence set record in FY2008

A record 59,618 acts of violent behavior by children were logged by elementary, junior and high schools nationwide in fiscal 2008, marking the third consecutive annual rise, the education ministry said Nov. 30. Reports of violent acts in junior high schools were up by some 6,000 from a year earlier, accounting for 72 percent of overall violence among children, while instances of bullying dropped 16 percent from the year before, the education ministry said. The ministry attributed the increase in violence to a decline in common manners and lack of communications skills among children. (Kyodo News)
