Internal Migration and Students' Bullying Experience: The Case of China from the Program for International Student Assessment 2018
Asia Pacific Education Review, v25 n4 p791-800 2024
Schools are becoming increasingly diverse due to globalization and migration. Worldwide, more than 700 million people migrate across international borders, and more than 200 million migrate within one country. Within China, approximately 36 million school-aged children relocate to cities with parents in the search for better education and future life. However, less research focuses on the school life experiences of migrant students, especially in terms of school bullying victimization. Using the Program for International Student Assessment 2018, this study examines the relationship between the migration status of students and their experiences of school bullying in China. This study finds that students who are migrants are more likely to experience school bullying compared with their local peers. Given that the experience of school bullying can exert long-term effects on the growth and later life of students, the finding calls for actions to provide a more inclusive school environment for migrant students. Lastly, this study provides important implications for educators and researchers.
