<![CDATA[Bullying in educational settings remains a significant challenge, despite the integration of moral education into the curriculum aimed at shaping students' character and reducing negative behaviors. This study aims to explore the effectiveness of moral education in addressing bullying while identifying barriers to its success. The research employed a mixed-methods approach, combining quantitative surveys and qualitative interviews with students and educators as participants. Data were analyzed thematically and through descriptive statistics to provide a comprehensive understanding. The key findings reveal a discrepancy between the moral values taught in schools and students' daily behavior.
