Anti-Bullying Week is a great opportunity to run activities that
give young people and staff the opportunity to discuss bullying and
related issues. The ABA has produced a small number of
suggested activities for use by teachers and youth workers this
Anti-Bullying week. Over time we will add activities and resources
from ABA member organisations so keep visiting the website on the
run up to Anti-Bullying Week.
The ABA activities can be adapted to suit all age groups.
Activities that explore bullying have the potential to be painful
for young people that are affected by bullying. We recommend
that all activities are supervised by a member of staff; and that
staff think carefully about how these activities are used , taking
into account the dynamics within the group.
Whenever you run an activity relating to bullying, we would
recommend that you finish the session by reminding young people
that they should seek help if they have concerns about
bullying.

Yorkshire Humber Grid For Learning are pleased
to launch a video resource for Anti-Bullying Week 2012 called 'R U
Alright?'. The short film links in with the theme 'We're better
without bullying' and focuses on the story of a teenager who
suffers online abuse due to his sporting and academic success. The
key message of the film is to try and ensure that young people
report bullying and take action whenever they feel that someone may
be the victim. The resource was produced in conjunction with
South Yorkshire Police and North Lincs TV. The actors are all
members of the South Yorkshire Police Cadets who took an active
role in developing the storyline and advising on how cyberbullying
effects young people. The link to the resources is: http://www.yhgfl.net/eSafeguarding/eSafety/Anti-Bullying-Week-2012
Primary colleagues may want to promote the video
'Daydreaming' which is available from: http://www.yhgfl.net/eSafeguarding/eSafety/Cyberbullying/Curriculum-resources.
