MANILA, Philippines — The Ateneo de Davao University has dismissed a high school student for bullying.

“Our inquiry into other aspects of the incident including the involvement of other students continues,” the university said in a post on social media.

School officials said it is focusing its concern on the bullied student and his family.

“We recognize their pain and distress, and we will continue to accompany them with care and support. This incident calls us to humility, reflection and action,” the school said.

The university has formed a task force on bullying prevention, which will review past and present bullying concerns  and how these were reported and addressed.

The school urged the public to help protect the privacy of minors involved by not sharing videos of the incident or information that could identify them.
