The teachers are requesting that, if someone harrasses you, you go WAY TOO FAR in defending yourself, and will dole out and withhold punishments to encourage it.

Anyone who wasn't basically ordering you to do that would behave differently.

It's about school reputation? I thought it was about dominance hierarchy, the same reason boys' sports is a higher priority than any other education program world-wide.

We just like our beefy kids and wish we could toss the defects down a pit like the Spartans.

I don't believe that's true.

Maybe it's true in American private schools where you need to chose which school to give money to, but where I live schools don't have reputation to care about. You just go to the one closest.

Happens in public schools where funds get cut for poor performance of students.

In my central European country, performance tracking is centralised and operated by the State, and does not affect funding.
