Physical bullying Although usually portrayed

as the most common type in the movies, it only comes second to verbal bullying.

Any aggressive hitting, pulling or shoving is

classified under this type.

Different types of bullying

Verbal bullying

This is the most common type. It includes name-

calling, offensive remarks or consistently making the person the butt of jokes.

Intimidation Any type of verbal threat

with the purpose of making the victim give in to the

bully’s demands is considered under this

category.

Social alienation We usually see this in

teenage films wherein the main character, typically a demure type, is excluded from groups by pompous

girls

Page 13: School bullying presentation

Olweus groundwork layout Coordinate with other schools in your district: Students will do best if they receive

consistent bullying prevention training throughout their schooling as they move through grade levels and among schools.

Assess the extent of the problem: Administer separate school wide surveys to students and staff members to identify prevalence, attitudes, knowledge, gaps in perception, and specific areas or aspects of the problem that you may need to target, such as locations or times when bullying occurs most often and particular concerns such as sexual harassment or "cyber bullying.“

Establish a coordinating team. This group will help develop and implement school wide activities. Select individuals who are knowledgeable about the issue and respected in the school community and who are good communicators and consensus builders (include a mental health professional, parents, and students). A separate specially trained team should provide intensive interventions to individual students.

Involve the entire school community: Be prepared for some initial resistance. Staff members may not see a need for a program or may feel overwhelmed at the thought of adding yet another objective to the year. Students may be skeptical if bullying has persisted for a long time. Parents may be concerned about diverting resources from the core curriculum or unconvinced that all students, including their child, will benefit by learning anti-bullying skills. Elicit regular input and provide consistent information to all groups.
