If you think your child or the child/young person you're looking after is being bullied, act immediately. Talk to your child about what they can do to deal with bullying, some extra advice can be found through the links below. If this doesn't work, talk to their teacher about what can be done. Always encourage your child to tell someone.
Many other children and young people are being bullied; it can happen at any age to any child and must be stopped. Remember, it is not their fault and they have the right to live without being picked on. Bullying behaviour is unacceptable.
More information can be found on the attached leaflet Bullying info for parents and carers
