This first stage of the study will be developed through the analysis of the data produced by the existing secondary sources, including also the respective public policies that have faced the phenomenom.

  From this framework, once a variety of cases of school violence have been detected, the successful strategies will be evaluated opening the possibility of applying them to different centres and contexts.

  The second stage of the project consists of reverting the observations, analysis and conclusions of the empirical study to the educative community, who faces almost without any tools a growing phenomenom.

  In this way, the final report of the common study will form the ground for the elaboration of a handbook that can be used as a basic training material for Secondary (High) School teachers from the partaking countries, with the suitable adaptations to each of them. The handbook will be written in English and Spanish.

  Following this, there will be designed distance education courses in each of the countries. These courses will go through a trial period with a small number of Secondary School teachers, who will take part as students as well as evaluators.
