   Students for various reasons caused casualties in the school when the incident occurred, the minor students under the age, knowledge and social experience, coupled with the self protection ability is poor, will inevitably hurt on campus, campus injury case occurred, the school and parents has always been controversial for law students after the injury, the relevant provisions of the law the country is also change several times, misunderstood, and fuzzy recognition. Dali famous scholar expert lawyer Ma Peijie made a detailed solution combined with the legal provisions of the latest, we hope to help.

   For student injury to solve the social widespread dispute liability accident, the Ministry of Education announced the "decision of the Ministry of education on Amending and Abolishing Some rules and regulations in December 25, 2010" (effective December 25th), below I law before and after revision for a detailed description of. 

   One, before and after modification of "student injury accident treatment measures" provisions:

1, before the revision: "student injury accident responsibility, should be based on the causal relationship between behavior and the damage to related parties to determine the consequences of. Student injury accidents caused by the school, student or other related to the fault of the parties, the relevant parties shall according to its behavior in proportion to the extent of the causal relationship between the fault and the consequences of damage shall bear the corresponding liability. The act of the party is the main reason for the occurrence of harm, should bear the main responsibility; the acts of the parties is the occurrence of harm non main reason, assume corresponding responsibility." According to this provision, injury accident of students need to refer to all evidence, determined according to the principle of fault liability.

   2, the revised provisions: "student injury responsibility judgment, will refer to" the people's Republic of China tort liability law "(hereinafter referred to as the" tort liability act ") and relevant laws, rules and regulations." This change has intensified the protection of students, and increase the probability of the school responsibility. According to the "Regulations of the people's Republic of China Tort Liability Act", according to the principle of fault presumption rules established, once students get hurt, the school must take responsibility, unless the school has evidence to prove that he has no fault (that is, to make the management and education of duty), otherwise, the law school has the responsibility on the presumption. That is to say if the school does not provide the evidence to prove that it has no fault, they should bear civil liability.

   According to the analysis of Yunnan Dali lawyer Ma Peijie, compared to the new regulations before, the student party without the need to prove that he has no fault laws and school has fault, which alleviates the burden of proof of the students, with students having no capacity for civil conduct awareness is low, poor awareness of self-protection, incapable of proof after the incident characteristics, is reasonable the.

   Two, students in the school were injured, the school should bear common responsibility.

   Responsibility: 1, a teaching facilities shall not be defective obligation.

   Case: the third grade primary school students with both hands on the corridor railing Lee in the teaching building on the third floor corridor to play, accidentally fell to the floor, because of a serious head injury, rescue invalid death.

"The law on the protection of minors" the first paragraph of article sixteenth states: "the school shall not let the minor student activities in health and safety, endanger the schools and other educational and teaching facilities." In addition, according to the Ministry of Education promulgated the "student injury treatment" Ninth paragraph, because the school buildings, sites, and other public facilities, the school provides students with learning, teaching and living facilities, equipment does not meet the national standard, the injury accidents of students or are apparently not safe caused by the factors, the school should bear the corresponding liability according to law. In this case, the teaching building porch railing is only 0.93 meters high, does not meet the requirements of "specification" design of school buildings on the balustrade should reach 1.1 meters high. Although the standard has not yet introduced the construction of the teaching building, but the time of the incident, "the law on the protection of minors" and "Education Law" has implemented. The defendant failed to control safety the standard inspection building, on the railing height did not meet the defect is not discovered in time and take corresponding remedial, preventive measures, can not shirk responsibility of the accused.

   Responsibility: 2, two safety management obligations.

   Case: a high side firewood son wavelet Zhao Mougang turned 10 years old in the school organization of the suburb picnic, my foot slipped and tumbled to the Kan Xia, left shoulder dislocation, spent 6800 yuan of medical expenses. After the courtMediationZhao, and school agree as follows: the loss caused by the wavelet falls, borne by the school in 80%, the rest of the Zhao conceited.

   Comments: "the law on the protection of minors" the seventeenth stipulation: "the schools and kindergartens for minor students and children attending rallies, collective activity culture and entertainment, social practice, should be conducive to the healthy growth of minors, prevent the occurrence of safety accidents." "Student injury accident treatment measures" article ninth fourth also makes clear a regulation, the school students to participate in teaching activities or extracurricular activities, without corresponding safety education to the students, did not take the necessary security measures within a predictable range, resulting in the injury accidents of students, the school should bear the corresponding liability according to law. Visible, the school to participate in the extracurricular activity in the organization of student, because of the potential risk is big, has the strict safety management obligations to students. In this case, the wavelet when infant in Gaokan side pick up firewood, can not fully foresee what is in some danger, and the school the teacher failed to immediately find and take effective measures to stop, so school on wavelet falls has fault, shall bear the corresponding compensation liability.

   Responsibility: 3, three time to stop the dangerous behavior of students

After identification, Hua Xiao Gang seven class disable. The court ruling Liu Ying parents bear the main responsibility, school bear secondary liability, the plaintiff assume some responsibility.

   Comments: injuries among students, occupies a large proportion in the campus injury case. Because this kind of accident injuring human another student, most of that the school should not be this kind of accident "bill". However, "Supreme People's courtAbout tries personCompensation for damageSome issues of applicable law cases the interpretation of "seventh stipulates:" for minors according to law has the education, management, protection of the obligations of schools, kindergartens and other educational institutions, the relevant obligations not within the scope of duties which suffered minorPersonal injuryMinors, or to his personal damage, it shall bear the liability for compensation according to his fault."

The Department of education to deal with mediation, the school for all loss army injuries.

   Comments: "the law on the protection of minors" Fifteenth stipulates: "the school, kindergarten teachers should respect the human dignity of minors, not for minor students and children to corporal punishment, corporal punishment or other insult the dignity of behavior." "Student injury treatment" Ninth Article ninth also stipulates, school teacher or other staff to corporal punishment or corporal punishment of students, or violates the work in the process of performing their duties, operating rules, occupation morals or other relevant provisions, causes the student injury accident, the school should bear the corresponding liability according to law.
