This paper presents the results of a conducted survey and a semi-structured interview on virtual violence among young people. In the first part of the paper virtual violence and its features are defined, and the school's relation towards virtual violence and current studies on this topic are shown. Then, the results of the research conducted in 6 schools (3 primary and 3 secondary schools) in 2017 were presented and interpreted on a representative sample of 242 students and 6 pedagogues in Zadar. The problem of this research was to investigate awareness, frequency and the most common type of virtual violence among young people, whether the virtual violence is being reported by the young people, the manner in which professional services in schools react to virtual violence among young people and whether preventive programs are being implemented in schools. In the analysis of the results methods of descriptive statistics and bivariate statistical procedures (hi-quadrate and t-test) were used. It was found that young people are mostly informed about the topic and types of virtual violence. They claim that more frequently they are witnesses of virtual violence and less frequently bullies or victims, and they also state that the most common type of virtual violence is insulting through messages or comments. Young people generally do not report virtual violence or ignore the situation. Furthermore, it has been shown that they have organized regular workshops, lectures, discussions or homeroom classes on virtual violence and the dangers of Internet, and which are most frequently held by a classmaster or a pedagogue. The results obtained from the survey and the semi-structured interview mostly coincide.
