Abstract

Bullying refers to the use of physical, intellectual or economic superiority to humiliate another person. This study aimed to investigate the existence and how bullying occurs in physical education classes in a Federal District School. For this, 140 students of the 7th and 8th grades of a school in the city of Guará – DF participated in the study. The students answered a questionnaire about the occurrence of abuse in physical education classes. Approximately 28.0% of the students have felt abused by a colleague. In this scenario, physical education classes can be used to promote activities that aim to integrate students, avoiding highlighting abilities and inabilities which can result in physical or verbal aggressions.

Keywords: Bullying. Physical Education. School Violence.
