Educational Institutions' Liability

Educational institutions can be held liable for the actions of students under certain circumstances, particularly when they fail to provide a safe environment or adequately supervise students. This liability can also extend to parents, who may be responsible for their children's conduct. If a child causes harm or engages in misconduct, both the school and the parents may face legal consequences. Factors such as negligence, whether the school had proper policies in place, and the nature of the child’s actions play a significant role in determining liability for both parties.
