Boys don't cry...
Thanks to the Forum for keeping us up-to-date!
All this makes me wonder, if the school in question is a "progressive" one.
Because in Socialism, especially in the armies of socialist countries, there was a system, where the older recruits disciplined the new ones by harrassing them - This was not only tolerated, but encouraged! The idea behind this seems to be, that unexperienced and untrained soldiers are worthless...
And from what I read here in the thread, it looks like the older pupils were practically encouraged to bully the new ones, so, that the new ones are forced to "fit in".
But this is just my uneducated guess!
And poor Prince Christian might have had to "fit in" as well. But this (perhaps) culture of systemic violence must come to an end, if a Princess is involved. I mean, if Princess Isabella fell victim to abuse, this would make international headlines and tarnish the whole of Denmark!
