Whether or not the school is liable for students who are injured during recess depends on the specific circumstances.
First of all, we need to clarify the school's safety management responsibilities during the student's time at the school. As an educational institution, the school has the responsibility to ensure the personal safety of students while they are in school. Specifically, schools should establish and improve safety management systems, prevent and eliminate potential campus safety hazards, and take timely rescue measures in the event of safety accidents. If the school fails to do so and the student is injured, the school shall be held responsible.
Next, we need to consider the nature of the behavior of students fighting each other between classes. It is dangerous for students to fight each other between classes, but whether this behavior is within the school's control is a key question. If the school has taken effective management and education measures, such as establishing a clear code of conduct, educating students on safety, and providing adequate safety facilities, but the students still fight and cause injuries during recess, then the school has fulfilled its management responsibilities in this case and should not be held responsible.
However, if the school fails to take effective management and educational measures, or if the measures taken are insufficient to prevent and eliminate potential safety hazards, resulting in injuries to students, then the school shall be held responsible. For example, if the school fails to repair the damaged desks and chairs in a timely manner, resulting in injuries to students during a fight between classes, then the school should be liable for compensation.
In addition, we have to consider the issue of guardianship responsibilities for minors. Minors' perception and judgment of danger are limited due to their limited cognitive and judgment abilities. Therefore, the guardian of the minor has an obligation to educate and supervise him. If the guardian of the minor fails to fulfill his guardianship duties and causes the child to be injured on campus, the guardian shall also bear the corresponding responsibility.
To sum up, whether the school is responsible for students who are injured by fighting each other during class depends on the specific situation. If the school has fulfilled its safety management responsibilities and the student still fights and causes injury during recess, then the school should not be held responsible. However, if the school fails to take effective management and education measures or the guardian fails to fulfill his guardianship duties, resulting in the child being injured on campus, the relevant responsible person shall bear the corresponding liability for compensation.
In order to avoid the occurrence of similar accidents, schools should strengthen safety management, formulate a clear code of conduct and safety management system, conduct safety education for students, and equip them with adequate safety facilities. At the same time, parents should also strengthen the guardianship and education of their children, educate their children to abide by school rules and discipline, and enhance safety awareness. By working together, we can create a safer and more harmonious campus environment for our students.
