Bullying

About this Guide

This course will outline the definitions of bullying, what forms it takes, and some of the laws governing bullying. While a school often needs to address single incidents of bullying, preparing a SCHOOL-WIDE APPROACH to bullying is far more effective in the long term. Developing a policy or a bullying initiative takes some work to prepare school staff, teachers and students. However, research has shown that a school-wide approach works better than individual instances of addressing bullying.
