The adoption of the reference practice is important to identify the risks to which minors are exposed and ensure operational management capable of eliminating and/or reducing them .
A milestone for the Cologna Veneta Comprehensive Institute - made up of two nursery schools, four primary schools and a lower secondary school for a total of one thousand students - which is the result of a lot of work and the collaboration of many people that the head teacher, Prof. Roberta Castellani , wanted to thank on the occasion of the certificate delivery ceremony.

“A special thanks goes to the Headmistress Prof.ssa Vilma Molinari who started this project in 2019, strongly believing in the need to build a school environment based on prevention , awareness and mutual respect.
But we must not forget the local institutions of Cologna Veneta, Roveredo di Guà and Pressana who have always been close to us in promoting a culture of legality and mutual respect; the Police Force and the local police , who with their presence and daily support contribute to making the school a safe place for everyone; CSQA , who has supported our institute in this journey, giving us concrete tools to improve our approach to preventing bullying; teachers and school staff , who with dedication and professionalism work every day to ensure our students have a peaceful educational environment; students and families , who with their participation demonstrate that the fight against bullying is not a task of the school alone, but a commitment shared by the entire community; sports clubs , who through sport teach our children fundamental values such as respect, collaboration and loyalty; transport companies , who guarantee the safety of our students every day in their travels, making protection and respect for the rules a cornerstone of their service.
“The certification we are obtaining today – the school principal underlined – is not just a certificate, but the symbol of a cultural change that we are carrying forward with determination.
In fact, it is not enough to recognize the problem: it is essential to act with effective educational strategies, building alliances between schools, institutions and the territory.
For this reason, today we want to proudly announce that we are about to sign a Territorial Co-responsibility Pact, an agreement that will involve all the entities in our territory for a joint and coordinated action against bullying”.
The municipal administrations of Cologna Veneta, with the mayor Manuel Scalzotto, Pressana and Roveredo di Guà, Luisa Pellegri of CSQA, the agents of the Carabinieri company of Cologna Veneta and the representatives of some sports associations in the area who have been collaborating with the local comprehensive institute for years were present at the certification delivery ceremony with their representatives.
The certification against bullying represents a significant milestone for the comprehensive institute of Cologna Veneta, but above all a starting point.
With this recognition, the commitment to preventing and combating bullying has been formalized, adopting concrete strategies, clear regulations and effective operational tools.
A central role in this process is played by the Educational Co-Responsibility Pact , which represents the essential alliance between school, families and students .
No action to combat bullying can be successful if it is not shared and supported by all those involved in educating children.
The Pact is not just a formal document, but a mutual commitment that calls everyone to be vigilant, responsible and active in promoting a climate of respect and collaboration. (Source: https:// www.lanotizia.news/ )
