"Bullies undermining educational rights 
By LANE NICHOLS - The Dominion Post | Thursday, 10 May 2007 

Children's rights to a quality education are being undermined by bullying,
harassment and under-achievement, according to a new report on human
rights.

The Human Rights Commission reviewed how New Zealand schools fared at
safeguarding children's universal right to education.

It found significant problems with bullying, discrimination and
harassment, a lack of systematic human rights education, cost barriers,
and disproportionate participation and success rates."
