Beyond Anti-Bullying Week

Whilst Anti-Bullying Week provides a useful focus we know that to be really successful anti-bullying work needs to be sustained and embedded consistently throughout the year.  The themed resources listed on this website provide a range of ideas for teachers and other practitioners.

It's also important to remember that there are commemorative days, weeks and months throughout the year that are relevant to tackling bullying, and can provide an opportunity to remind children and young people of the ways that bullying and discrimination have affected the lives of people throughout history, and continue to be an issue today.  Some of these commemorative events with information and resources for schools are listed below:
