Last term’s Anti-Bullying Week may have been the biggest yet – a nationwide survey of teachers and pupils has revealed that a whopping 80 per cent of schools in England took part.
We saw huge amounts of activity to raise awareness of the themes around bullying as a behaviour choice and how we can still respect those we disagree with – assemblies, video productions, poetry readings, flash mobs, lots of Aretha Franklin, and oh so many creative ways to display odd socks.
We are delighted that more than 90 per cent of schools taking part said that Anti-Bullying Week helps them raise awareness about bullying, so it is a hugely important tool. However, we also know that once the hubbub of the week dies down, the hard work to tackle bullying carries on: it’s a year-round issue.
