This study aims to understand the phenomenon of bullying or bullying from the perspective of institutional inspectors, with the objective of making visible how their perception is in cases of bullying within the Unidad Educativa Particular Católica de Cuenca school. An approach was made to the knowledge they have about this phenomenon, as well as the cognitive and emotional components that build the perception of bullying. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with the study group made up of six inspectors from the educational institution, the information was analyzed in a categorical matrix. The results indicate that the inspectors' perception of bullying is built intuitively and based on experience, having more impact than technical education on bullying, demonstrating a high capacity to respond to and solve bullying situations that are presented within the institution.
