Positive Relationships: Behaviour - How cruel?

Ahead of next month’s Anti-Bullying Week, Caroline Vollans examines what bullying behaviour actually is and shows how practitioners can encourage children’s kindness and co-operation

The theme for Anti-Bullying Week 2017 is ‘All Different, All Equal’. Throughout the week, from 13-17 November, the Anti-Bullying Alliance will be helping schools to focus on what makes each child and young person unique, with the clear message that one’s difference or particularity should be a reason for celebration – not for being picked on or bullied.

The ethos of the alliance is that every child should be accepted equally in school, thus making it a safe environment for them to be in. To feel safe, every pupil needs to be free and able to be themselves without the fear of being harassed or isolated.
