Abstract
Many students in secondary schools in Cameroon in general and the North West and South West region get into schools to pursue an academic career. The educational journey is rich with several goals but most at times challenging with ups and downs as regards bullying in the school environment. This thesis research explored school bullying amongst high school students, their perspectives, and their effects on academic performance. Data was collected from over 30 participants, of whom 24 were students of upper sixth classes, and 6 were teachers in the Northwest and Southwest regions of Cameroon in secondary schools. All interviews were through WhatsApp with questioning, and it was found that most students go through kinds of bullying in secondary schools, and most often do not let anyone know about it. The findings showed that school bullying still exists in most schools and influences student’s academic performance and school attendance. It was acknowledged that most students experienced bullying in their classes, and some students reported cases of bullying to their teachers. Bullying still exists and continues to affect the academic achievements of most students in Cameroon.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
