School policy I'm fine with. Each to their own. Both my kids go to two different schools where that's the policy.

To make it an outright ban with no autonomy left to individual schools is heavy handed, but also not needed IMO.

It's not like there needs to be a political policy of creating a national ban on school bullying. Each school obviously deals with it today and enforces it in their own way.
If students are going against the school policies today, having it be a political policy isn't going to change any individual's behavior, and does nothing to set a standard for enforcement.
At the very most it'll set an expectation for parents that the school will create a policy if one doesn't exist today, but I'd expect most schools to already have one, and if they don't by now, they'll be very unlikely to enforce a policy despite any national ban.


Making it a political policy adds no value. It comes across as a self-righteous moral talking point.
