27 February 2008: Tackling School Bullying, NSB Conference, London

Delivering a session on cyberbullying issues and prevention for the NSB dialogues and forums: Tackling School Bullying conference.

"In this conference, we set out to examine what best practice can tell us about managing bullying within our own schools. What works with the bully? How can bullying be identified in the first instance? How can an anti-bullying ethos be encouraged and rooted in the school’s policy and practice? How can teachers themselves be led to a more robust view on bullying when it is reported? And, often in the news currently, what can be done to tackle technology-related bullying using such things as mobile phones and Internet.

The range of professionals at this conference will explore some of these key issues in a way that will help delegates consider their own policies and practice around bullying and also be informed at a more fundamental level about what bullying is and how is can be tackled."
