MARAWI CITY, Lanao del Sur, June 14 (PIA) --The Philippine National Police (PNP) is setting-up action centers in public schools here to address the problem of bullying inside and outside schools and campuses.
PO2 Esnairah M. Lucman, president of the Lanao del Sur PNP Lady Officers Club, said a desk officer will be assigned in each of the School Anti-Bullying Action Center (SABAC) to receive complaints of students and teachers.
She said they have coordinated with the school principals in the city to delegate the school’s guidance counsellor or assign a staff from the school to serve as SABAC desk officer.
The SABAC desk officer will then communicate with the Women and Children Protection (WCPD) Desk Officer of the PNP in case of bullying complaints or other security concerns of the school, she said.
According to Lucman, the PNP will also be conducting spontaneous schools visitation to inquire if there are bullying incidents in the schools and campuses.
As of this time, six SABAC mother units have been established by the PNP.
