OVERVIEW

About this course.

Bullying affects the lives of children and young people in every kind of setting — schools, colleges, youth clubs, sports teams, care settings and online. For some it is a passing unpleasantness; for others it is a sustained ordeal that damages their confidence, their friendships, their attendance, their mental health and, in the most serious cases, their safety. Adults who work with children and young people are often the people best placed to notice when something is wrong, to make a child feel safe enough to tell, and to respond in a way that actually stops the harm. That is why understanding bullying is a core part of safeguarding, not an optional extra.

The course covers the main types of bullying (physical, verbal, relational, cyber), prejudice-based bullying and the Equality Act 2010, the school's legal duty, the roles involved (target, perpetrator, bystander, upstander), the impact on mental health and development, the safeguarding overlap, signs a child may be being bullied, whole-setting prevention strategies, and how to support both the child who has been bullied and the child who has bullied others.
