This study investigates the prevention and resolution of bullying and cyberbullying in Slovak primary and secondary schools from the perspective of prevention coordinators. Conducted in May 2020 via an online questionnaire with 553 respondents, the study reveals that most schools (86.3% for bullying, 73.6% for cyberbullying) faced these issues in the 2019/2020 academic year, marking an increase since 2016. Bullying was more prevalent in primary schools and gymnasiums. While schools implement diverse prevention activities and largely comply with Directive No. 36/2018, significant obstacles persist. These include victims' fear, trivialisation by peers/teachers, problematic communication with aggressors' parents, and insufficient time, space, and institutional support for prevention. Recommendations focus on dedicated prevention time, formalising coordinator roles, and enhancing support services.
