You will find questions in this booklet about your life in school. There are several answers next to
each question. Answer each question by filling in the circle next to the answer that best describes
how you think or feel. In question 1 below, if you really dislike school, fill in the circle next to “I dislike
school very much.” If you really like school, fill in the circle next to “I like school very much,” and so
on. Fill in only one of the circles for each question. Try to keep your marks inside of the circle.

Now, fill in the circle next to the answer that best describes how you feel about school.
1. How do you like school?
I dislike school very much
I dislike school
I neither like nor dislike school
I like school
I like school very much

If you fill in the wrong circle, you can change your answer like this: Put an “X” through the
wrong circle and then fill in the circle where you want your answer to be.

Do not put your name on this booklet. No one will know how you have answered these questions.
But it is important that you answer carefully and tell how you really feel. Sometimes it is hard to
decide what to answer, but just try to give your best answer. If you have questions, raise your hand.

Most of the questions are about your life in school in the past couple of months, that is, the
period from the start of school after summer (winter) holiday vacation until now. So when
you answer, you should think of how it has been during the past 2 or 3 months and not only how
it is just now.

About being bullied by other students


Here are some questions about being bullied by other students. First we explain what bullying is.
We say a student is being bullied when another student, or several other students

say mean and hurtful things, or make fun of him or her, or call him or her mean and
hurtful names
completely ignore or exclude him or her from their group of friends or leave him or
her out of things on purpose
hit, kick, push, shove around, or lock him or her inside a room
tell lies or spread false rumors about him or her or send mean notes and try to make
other students dislike him or her
and do other hurtful things like that

When we talk about bullying, these things happen more than just once, and it is difficult for the
student being bullied to defend himself or herself. We also call it bullying when a student is
teased more than just once in a mean and hurtful way.

But we do not call it bullying when the teasing is done in a friendly and playful way. Also, it is not
bullying when two students of about equal strength or power argue or fight.

4. How often have you been bullied at school in the past couple of months?
I have not been bullied at school in the past couple of months
It has only happened once or twice
2 or 3 times a month
About once a week
Several times a week
