CHAPTER 1
INTRODUCTION
Bullying is a complex social issue that involves the repetitive, intentional and
harmful behavior towards another individual or group. It can take vanous
forms such as physical, verbal, or relational aggression, and can occur in
different settings like schools, workplaces, or online platforms Bullying can
have serious and long-lasting effects on the victims, including emotional,
psychological, and even physical harm. It is important for everyone to
understand the impact of bullying and work together to prevent and address
this issue to create a safe and inclusive environment for everyone.
To start, Bullying is a massive issue that everyone faces in life specially in
school where its effects are well known and in times often tragic, though our
focus is its effects on the Academic Performance of Grade 12 students in
Santa Cruz Integrated National High School,
To be able to fight bullying and figure out how it effects the Academic
Performance will be vital for our search for knowledge and to hopefully
answer or solve the issue of bullying.
As we want to be able to help make the School a safe environment for
learning and to make sure students work efficiently in class and without the
problem of bullying in their minds as they push towards their goals for the
future.
To be able to mend those issues and somewhat give an idea on how the
problem can possibly be tackled is what anyone would want to be able to do
and act upon and soforth.

It has always been a problem that caused many to either lose themselves or
act in a way where in the end they may cause harm to others due to their
experience in being bullied so they’ve resolved to do what has been done to
them by bullying more people which repeats the same process over and over
again.
This problem has lasted for way too long and to this day it continues nonstop
and ongoing so it would be the best of everyone’s interest to be able to mend
this issue as I am sure that there are people who are afflicted by this
ongoing situation everyday someone gets bullied or harassed and they are
left alone to deal with issue themselves and in the end possibly not getting
any help and this problem just keeps on getting worst by the end of all of it.
And bullying is not only a physical attack but mental or psychological too but
most importantly it affects the victims of the cause emotionally which is a deep
issue.
BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY
Bullying is the act of belittling, degrading and offending people that are
deemed lesser or undeserving of what they own through physical, mental, and
emotional means usually in a harmful manner for of course it would not be
bullying if it were not causing any harm to the victim, this issue had been
going on for a long amount of time and has not been solved yet, even with the
warnings, anti bullying guidelines and other attempts at curbing or preventing
the act of bullying it is still pretty prominent in our society today and specially
towards children, teens and adolescent students inside schools, universities
and many educational institutions often causing unrest and disorder that leads
to even worse problems. The attempts at solving it still isn’t enough to find an
end to this problem and it was our decision to find out more about this issue
and find more ways to solve this issue and to create a safe and healthy
environment for the students of this school, Santa Cruz Integrated National
High School and to make sure there will not be any unwanted incidents that’ll
harm future students
Bullying is a serious problem that affects many students in schools and online.
Bullying can have negative consequences for the physical, mental, and social
well- being of the victims, the perpetrators, and the bystanders. Therefore, it is
important to understand the nature, causes, and effects of bullying, as well as
the ways to prevent and intervene in bullying situations.
Bullying is defined as "physical or verbal aggression that is repeated over a
period and, in contrast to meanness, involves an imbalance of power" 1.
Bullying can take different forms, such as physical (e.g., hitting, kicking,
pushing), verbal (e.g. name-calling, teasing, threatening), social (e.g.
spreading rumors, excluding, isolating), or cyberbullying (e.g. sending hurtful
messages, posting harmful images or videos)
Bullying has also been known to have caused many terrible things like
suicide, the lost of self confidence and the lost of self worth caused by bullying
caused people to take their own lives due to the harassment they've been
showered with and even if there are those who protect, love and still care
about them some would not be able to see it for all that is in their mind is the
pain they've experienced and the thought of finally being free of it, even if it
doesn't lead to the taking of one's life bullying still has long term negative
effects on the way someone acts weather it be a low self confidence or the
fear of socializing with other people and its why this is such an important issue
to be dealt with and the significance of it to us as a student is just as large.
SCOPE AND DELEMITATION
The Study was conducted to assess The Effect of Bullying to the Mental
Health of Grade 12 ICT Students in Santa Cruz Integrated National High

CHAPTER 2
REVIEW OF RELATED STUDIES
ATTENDANCE
Attendance is the act of being present at or attending a class, an event or a
meeting. It depends upon the classroom, whether the attendance would be
both physical and virtual. In schools, students must maintain their attendance
against a set standard. The concept of students appearing in the classroom to
attend the lecture is called class attendance. Class Teachers count all the
students by their name and record the information in a register or digital
software
There are various methods of taking attendance like biometric systems using
student identification cards or fingerprints, physical presence is recorded in
registers or software tools. During online classes, the teacher marks online
attendance to ensure the presence of all the students.
As per school policy, the attendance of students affects their grades.
Sometimes, students’ absenteeism from school has various reasons. Some of
these reasons can be a bad company, personal issues, health issues, family
problems, bullying, etc. Keeping a tab on absenteeism helps to identify the
reasons behind a student’s absence from school. When recognized, teachers
can work in that direction to improve a student’s situation.
A student has to cite reasons to their teachers for not being present in school.
They must not be absent from school for an extended period without providing
any prior information. Besides a classroom, students’ presence is also noted
in other school events like sports, art class, lab class, etc. If a student is
regularly absent from school for a particular reason, they are guided to enroll
in counseling. Parent-teacher meetings also help to convey the issues
students face for being regularly absent. Academic achievement is also linked
to the same.
Grades
School bullying and cyberbullying (speciall represent the most common forms
of victimization during childhood and adolescence in many countries across
the globe. Although they can be studied as distinct phenomena with their own
defining characteristics, there is evidence to suggest that they are related and
often co-occur. The present research aimed to estimate the rates of school
bullying and cyberbullying, studied their evolution by age, and analyzed any
possible overlap between the two. An empirical study was carried out with a
large sample of children and adolescents in Galicia, Spain (N2083), where 10-
17 year olds were presented with The European Bullying Intervention Project
Questionnaire and European Cyberbullying Intervention Project.
Questionnaire School bullying was found to be more prevalent than
cyberbullying, with 25.1% involved as victims and 14.3% as bully-victims while
the cyberbullying rates were 9.4% for victims and 5.8% for bully-victims
Perpetration rates were similar for school and cyberbullying (4.4% and 4.3%
respectively) The overlap between both phenomena adds to the evidence for
a whole-community approach to tackling all types of bullying and victimization
experiences, as opposed to each in silo. The clear age differences in bullying
behaviors also suggest the appropriateness of tailoring anti-bullying programs
to target specific age groups.

TYPES OF BULLYING
Physical bullying: Physical bullying includes hitting, kicking, tripping,
pinching and pushing or damaging property. Physical bullying causes both
short term and long term damage.
Verbal bullying: Verbal bulling includes name calling, insults, teasing,
intimidation, homophobic or racist remarks, or verbal abuse. While verbal
bullying can start off harmless, it can escalate to levels which start affecting
the individual target.
Psychological Bullying: Psychological Bullying, sometimes referred to as
covert bullying, is often harder to recognize and can be carried out behind the
bullied person’s back. It is designed to harm someone’s social reputation
and/or cause humiliation.
Psychological bullying can include: Lying and spreading rumors Negative
facial or physical gestures, menacing or contemptuous looks Playing nasty
jokes to embarrass and humiliate Mimicking unkindly Encouraging others to
social exclude someone Damaging someone’s social reputation or social
acceptance.
Cyber bullying: The Cyber Bullying Research Centre defines cyber bullying
as: Intentional and repeated harm inflicted through the use of computers,
phones, and other electronic devices. Cyber bullying can be overt or covert
bullying behaviors using digital technologies including hardware such as
computers and smartphones, and software such as social media, instant
messaging, texts, websites and other online platforms. Cyber bullying can
happen at any time. It can be in public or in private and sometimes only

known to the target and the person bullying. And for ICT students this’ll be an
important chapter of their studies to deal with specially with the growing reach
of media through the internet where trolls, cyberexploiters, and such start to
grow in numbers.
Cyber bullying can include: Abusive or hurtful texts, emails or posts, images
or videos Deliberately excluding others online Nasty gossip or rumors
Imitating others online or using their log-in.

CHAPTER 3
METHODOLOGY
Research design- The study used a survey research design strategy to
address the research question stated in the study
Locale of the study- The study will be conducted in Santa Cruz Integrated
National High School that is located at Oogong Santa Cruz Laguna. The

used purposive sampling technique. Purposive sampling is a technique in
which researcher selects a sample based on the participants intent. The
researchers believed that by using judgement and observation, they can
obtain a purposive sample. The Effects of Bullying in the Academic
performance of Grade 12 ICT students in Santa Cruz Integrated National High
School was investigated using closed-ended and open-ended survey
questionnaire.
Data Gathering Procedure- In this study, the researcher formulate a

students of Santa Cruz Integrated National Highschool
Theoretical Framework
Bullying has been a problem faced by my People and is found everywhere in
life including education, one of the most vital aspects of preventing bullying is
to stop the
Unneeded harassment endured by many students who are unable to fight for’
themselves and just let the bullying continue so to solve this issue is to help
the undependable with their issues with bullying. And bullying has been found
to have a significant impact on the academic performance of students,
especially in higher education. This section provides a theoretical framework
for understanding the impact of bullying on academic performance Social
Cognitive Theory js the theoretical framework that explains the interaction
between behavior, individual factors and the

Environment. According to SCT individuals learn by observing others, as they
model behavior or adopt and modify their behavior according to their
environment furthermore individual’s self efficacy also plays a crucial role in
their learning process.
Social cognitive theory can be used to explained aggressive bullying
behaviors, for example youth who are exposed to domestic violence in the
home are more likely to bully others than those who aren’t exposed to
domestic violence and the same goes with children who socialize with
aggressive peers: they are more likely to show aggressive behaviors toward
others than those who do not socialize with aggressive peers. It is apparent
frat students who bully others is a result of what they see or what is being
done to them. They are hurting and the root is unresolved emotional issues
from witnessing violence in their homes or from their peers or both.
