In recent years however, the development of anti-bullying initiatives in schools has evolved considerably and achieved many encouraging outcomes. The lamentable approach of the school in the above story is appalling but there are effective ways for schools to create an environment/ecology that does not tolerate bullying. Being the biggest bully doesn't = does not tolerate bullying. I can point you to research in this field that amply demonstrates the effectiveness of well implemented root and branch anti-bullying measures in schools. To be sure, a swift kick in the 'nads might serve its purpose well in some circumstances. There are though many victims of bullying for whom that option is not viable. There are also the kind who are so miserable that they are more likely to drink bleach. Institutional approaches are necessary.

I was bullied by the next door neighbor kid constantly in grade school. One day he tried to bully my sister and I just blew a fuse and kicked the living crap out of him. After that he was totally terrified of me. As long as they think they can get away with it, it won't stop. The only thing that really works is confronting it head on.
