Presented are the results of a study on violence among peers (bullying) at Universidad de Guadalajara high school. The study was carried out in two phases. First was the diagnostic phase, basedon the results of a survey answered by 600 students in the vocational school. The results were processed by techniques of descriptive statistics, leading to categories that refer to reasons, feelings and student roles in situations of violence at school. The second stage worked with a pilot group in a conflict-solving workshop. The results reflect changes in students’ awareness of their roles in the phenomenon of violence.

Keywords : school violence; high school; students; awareness; Mexico.
