What to do if ...
Action against Bullying
IT IS BULLYING IF SOMEONE CONTINUALLY:-
- Threatens
you
- Calls
you names
- Hurts
you
- Damages
your possessions
- Spreads
rumours about you
- Uses
text, email, or social media to say hurtful things
- Say
hurtful things about your ethnic background, religion, gender, sexuality,
disability, special educational need, appearance or specific issues in your
family
Amery hill school does not tolerate bullying. We will:-
- Make
sure that the person being bullied is safe
- Work
to stop it happening again
- Provide
support to the person being bullied
What should you do?
Talk to someone you trust and get them to help you take the right steps to stop the bullying. When you are talking to an adult be clear about:-
- What
has happened to you
- How
often it has happened
- Who
was involved
- Who
saw what was happening
- Where
and when it happened
- What
you have done about it already
- What
evidence you can share in the form of screen shots if needs be
Dealing with bullying situations
Try to stay calm when the bullying starts – people who bully often enjoy the feeling of power they get if they can see that they can “wind you up”, especially in front of an audience. Try to deny them this satisfaction.
- Breathe
deeply, save any evidence of online bullying and remind yourself that:
- There
is nothing about you that deserves this. Nobody has the right to treat you like
this.
- What
the bully says tells people more about them than you.
- You
might just walk away and try to ignore the bullying - they may lose interest if
you don’t react.
- Use
the CEOP Reporting tab on any social media platform to report abuse.
You might try looking the person bullying you in the eye, and saying something like “I don’t know why you are doing this, but I would like it to stop. Please leave me alone now.” (This is hard to do, so don’t feel bad if you don’t feel able to do this.)
Remember to talk to an adult you trust who will be able to help you.
