That’s not a winning figure to be proud of and although I’m horrified I’m not surprised either.
I honestly thought USA would’ve taken that prize.

Perhaps the threshold of what is considered bullying is lower?
At one stage there were claims being made that rape/SA at Sydney Uni was as hi as war torn Congo. Then for the big reveal. A prolonged stare was counted as SA.

Reply #5 - Sep 4^th, 2025 at 2:05pm Observant parents will pick up on bullying quite early. Once they do that they then find the best environment for their child. I'm not sure making others responsible (not the bully) is a healthy alternative. You can't stamp out bad parenting.

How do they rank them?

In addition to the cognitive data reported on in Volume I, PISA collected a wealth of student and school
contextual data through the background questionnaires. This report focuses on a variety of constructs related
to 15-year-old students’ experiences at school, which illustrate student background characteristics and
schooling environments, including sense of belonging, student–teacher relationships, disciplinary climate,
exposure to bullying, students’ resistance to stress, curiosity, perseverance, shortage of educational staff and
shortage of educational material.
