Abstract

Some recent reports publish an alarming condition of child abuse at home and schools. This condition is unfortunate since children should be supported to grow in a healthy atmosphere. To meet this need, the Indonesian government issued a child-friendly school policy in 2014. The present study aims to evaluate the performance of the policy in an empirical setting in a school. Of the four domains of abuses, this study only focuses on the physical violence experienced by students in the sample school. This study was conducted at one of the child-friendly schools in Ternate. By employing quantitative anthropology, this study surveyed physical abuses to 187 students using a valid and reliable instrument and analyzed the data by using descriptive statistics. In general, the whole study covered three dimensions of physical abuses namely abuses committed by schoolmates against the respondents, abuses committed by respondents to their schoolmates, and abuses by teachers to respondents. However, due to the limited space available, this article merelydiscusses the pictures of abuses by schoolmates and abuses by respondents. The result shows that the cases of physical abuses experienced by students varied from never, seldom, sometimes, often, and very often in frequency. Most of the students never experienced the abuses, some percentage experienced the abuses in different gradation of frequency, from seldom, sometimes, often, and very often.
