Abstract: Abstract Bulling among students is a major problem having serious physical and psychological implications all over the world. Research results indicate that both perpetrators and their victims display problematic behavior in school and they have difficulties to cope with their classmates. Many researchers analyze the reasons behind bullying in school environments and try to provide solutions to this problem. In order to decrease aggressive behavior among school students, we suggest that it is crucial that the schools and the families of the children create a relationship to help all the students to shape good personalities. We propose the cooperation of teachers and families, and the use of a fully supervised safety and prevention system which, with the help of Information Technology, will provide knowledge of such situations and help to gradually weaken them. In this work, we describe the design of a pilot monitoring system for one elementary school. Having recorded the potential risks to a child in the school environment, we design a knowledge base that is intended to alert for the events taking place in the schools’ space and calculate the level of risk for each of them. For the easier update of the events in the knowledge base, we created an easy-to-use interface that appeals even to ordinary users.
