I have 100% had to punish students who reacted to bullying as opposed to the bullies because I can only act on what I see and have proof of. Thus I tell every class I'm in not to engage with the antagonistic behaviour of others, because if I spot you retaliating, I have to punish you.


I think this is wrong. Do you think humans are ragdolls? If someone is being physical with you, you can't just sit there and take it until the teacher notices (which may not ever happen), and you can't expect kids to be little tattletales who run crying to the teacher every time someone starts to mess with them. That will just get them into even worse social situations.


You have to take responsibility for your actions. Just because you are being antagonized doesn't mean that if you hit a student you get a free pass.
