Description
Summary:Bullying affected one in four of the 140,000 callers to Childline in 2004 but how to deal with it remains a matter for hot debate. This programme goes beneath the rhetoric to find out what the key strategies on offer really are. Leading advocates are interviewed, including the children's charity Kidscape, who recommend a multi-layered approach to the problem including assertiveness training for victims, as well as those behind the controversial No Blame method. The programme meets reformed bullies and former victims and find out what Schools Minister Jacqui Smith thinks the answer is. Pam Orchard, the Headteacher who in 2004 ordered a mass-suspension of 40 girls after a single bullying incident, reflects on the lessons learned and gives her views on how best to really beat bullying in schools.
