Today is National Day of Action Against Bullying and Violence. Our students will be spending some time in class engaging with this important topic.
Parents and other carers have a key role in preventing and responding to bullying.
Learn what bullying is and what it is not. This is the first step in talking about how to prevent or respond to bullying with your child. ‘Bullying’ is a word that is used for lots of things that are not actually bullying. These other behaviours may be just as serious, but may require different responses.
Schools can be much more effective when parents report bullying and support their efforts to deal with it.
If your child reports that bullying is occurring at school, or the bullying involves students from the school outside of school, you should let the school know the situation.
The Fact Sheet below is for Primary School aged students. You might like to share and discuss this with your child. Teachers and Leaders at BPS are always here to discuss any bullying or wellbeing concerns that may arise.
