It’s national Anti-Bullying Week this week – a week where children and young people, schools, parents and carers come together with one aim: to stop bullying for all.
This year the Anti-Bullying Alliance who co-ordinate the week are calling on school communities to take action to stop the bullying of ALL children and young people – including disabled children and those with special educational needs – children who are significantly more likely to experience bullying in schools and the wider community. See http://www.anti-bullyingalliance.org.uk/anti-bullying-week/ for more information and to make a donation to their important work.
To celebrate the important work done by the Anti-bullying Alliance and teachers everywhere we are giving away 5 FREE anti-bullying books (Helping Children Deal with Bullying) to help with your anti-bullying work.
For a chance to win a book,please find us on Facebook, like our page and our post, share if possible. We will choose 5 people at random on Mon 24 Nov 12 noon from all post “Likers” then notify winners via Facebook. If you would like to enter our competition but are not a Facebook user, then please email jenny@jennymosley.co.uk saying that you would like to enter the anti-bullying give away.
By Jenny Mosley and Helen Sonnet. Bullying is an issue that all schools need to address to develop a safe school ethos. This whole-school format guides you through the essential systems that you need to establish to ensure that your school is tackling bullying. These systems will enable children to grow in confidence and develop a clearer understanding of their behaviour and its impact on others.
“I like the emphasis placed on ethos and the equal weight given to working with children – and with parents.” – Andrew Mellor, Anti-Bullying Network
