A school should be a safe place for all students. The existence of discrimination, harassment and offensive behavior should according to Swedish school law not exist in the school environment. Since the year 2006, when a law on equal treatment was passed, all the schools in Sweden must have a treatment plan that is revised annually to prevent discrimination, harassment and abusive treatment. In this master thesis, I will examine the equal treatment plan between four different elementary schools in Nynäshamn. The purpose of this paper is to examine how the equal treatment plan exposes the bullying and the types of problems and solutions addressed in the elementary schools equal treatment plans. Based on the purpose, I have formulated two questions: How do the elementary schools in Nynäshamn municipality describe bullying in the equal treatment plan? What kinds of problems and solutions are addressed in the equal treatment plan evaluations? This thesis is based on text analysis and content analysis on the schools equal treatment plans. The study is based on the theories from a norm critical perspective. The conclusion of the study is that all four schools treatment plan see abusive behavior as something serious and preventive. Equal treatment plans show that they are actively working at schools to discuss problems and identify bullying at school |
