Would bystanders get better grades if bullying did not happen in the classroom any longer? Why?

...kids are frequently as distressed by witnessing bullying as by being bullied.
Bullying in the classroom is any repeated, intentional behavior that causes harm or distress to another individual. This can include physical, verbal, or emotional abuse, as well as social exclusion and cyberbullying.
Bullying in the classroom can have a negative impact on bystanders' grades due to the stress and distraction it causes. Bystanders may also experience feelings of guilt, fear, and helplessness, which can affect their academic performance.
Research has shown that bystanders who witness bullying are more likely to have lower grades compared to those who do not. This is due to the emotional and psychological toll that bullying can have on bystanders.
Teachers can address bullying in the classroom by creating a positive and inclusive classroom environment, educating students about the negative effects of bullying, and implementing clear consequences for bullying behavior.
Some ways to support bystanders who witness bullying include providing them with resources and support, such as counseling services and peer support groups. Teachers can also encourage bystanders to speak up and report bullying incidents, and provide them with strategies to intervene safely.
