Advantages of this course
- According to the charity Young Minds, bullying affects over one million young people every year in the UK. It can happen to anyone and although most bullying happens at school, it can follow pupils anywhere where they take their mobiles, or when they turn on their computers and games consoles at home. Schools have a duty of care to their students that extends beyond the school gates and this course suggests ways to adopt a whole school approach to bullying - both in and outside of school.
- Bullies often target people who have a characteristic they perceive to be 'different' or has an insecurity they can exploit. They may also target people who they feel threatened by or there is a power imbalance due to social or economic status. Sadly, those students who have difficulties or disadvantages at home are more likely to be bullied at school. This course considers why people bully, and who they target. It also stresses the importance of celebrating diversity, and leading by example by including every child and their family in school life.
- Additional activities encourage you to reflect on your learning
- There is also a further Learning section of this lesson for specific advice on tackling the bullying of children and young people who are at greater risk, such as LGBT pupils and children with SEN and/or Disabilities.
