<p><font size="1" color="#FFFFFF">Unfortunately bullying is very common
in schools and in places of work everywhere. Most people think of
bullying as physical - hitting, punching, kicking, and stealing;
but bullying is anything that makes a person do something they do
not want to do, name calling etc. The main problem is that too many
people and too many schools stand by and let it happen. </font></p>
<p><font size="1" color="#FFFFFF">You as a pupil have certain rights,
your school must do certain things to protect you from bullying.
The following information came from the DFEE (Department for Education
and Employment) - these guys are responsible for writing the laws
that tell teachers and schools how to work. Their website is at
<a href="http://www.dfee.gov.uk/"> <b>www.dfee.gov.uk/</b></a>:
"Each school should have a clear school behaviour policy. It should
make clear the boundaries of what is acceptable, the hierarchy of
sanctions, arrangements for their consistent and fair application,
and a linked system of rewards for good behaviour. It should promote
respect for others, intolerance of bullying and harassment, the
importance of self-discipline and the difference between 'right'
and 'wrong'." Unfortunately we cannot guarantee you will never be
bullied. There are some things that you can do however, that will
make you less likely to be bullied: </font></p>
<p><font size="1" color="#FFFFFF"><b>What to do:</b><br>
Remember: You don't deserve to be bullied, it's the bullies' problem!
<br>
Talk about it to someone who will listen <br>
Ignore the bullies themselves completely - The best thing to bullies
about bullying people is seeing that they are hurting the victim.
That's what gives them the kick. Simply learn to ignore them. If
you shut them out and carry on, they will eventually get bored of
not getting a response, and leave you alone. It's a tried and tested
method- proved by my experience! Try it, it really works <br>
Tell a teacher you trust<br>
Stick to facts and bring a witness<br>
Defend yourself only if necessary<br>
Stay in a group<br>
Be firm, if they pressure you shout "NO"; it'll get attention </font></p>
<p><font size="1" color="#FFFFFF"><b>What not to do:</b> <br>
DO NOT IGNORE THE BULLYING - MAKE A NOISE ABOUT IT<br>
Don't confront the bully<br>
Don't fight back except to defend yourself - it only makes it worse
believe me!<br>
Don't get in a slanging match <br>
If you are scared or intimidated get away and get help<br>
Don't fight to keep your stuff - you are more important!</font></p>
<p><font size="1" color="#FFFFFF"> <b>Other Advice:</b> <br>
Stand up for yourself - do not become a doormat - if someone teases
you do not stand for it; tell your teacher, friends or anyone. It
does help.<br>
Speak to other people who have been bullied, they will know what
to do.<br>
If your teachers do not listen or take action make a row - you have
a right - the links go to pages that highlight some of those rights.<br>
Don't let anyone fobb you off with the idea that your problems are
not as significant as anyone elses! Cos they are far from it - everyone
counts! Do not be afraid to show your individuality. If people around
you at the moment don't like it, people around the corner will!
<br>
Bullies (although it doesn't seem like it) are only confident from
the outside. I personally don't buy that crap about them already
being scarred and having to take it out on others - They are cowards!</font></p>
