A school that engages their whole school community to address the problem of bullying
is much more likely to succeed in preventing bullying than a school using single-factor
interventions only. A whole school approach to preventing and responding to bullying
should be based on research and evidence based practice, effective pedagogy and strong
partnerships.
Does the behaviour warrant intervention even if the target does not
appear particularly upset?
What are the legal implications?
How often does the bullying occur?
Does it continue after repeated teacher intervention?
Note: Regardless of perceived severity, all cases of bullying require attention from
the school.
Sanctions are considered more justified when the bullying persists after
repeated counselling.
Degree of remorse
Is the bully feeling remorseful after the bullying incident? It is important to consider this
as methods such as mediation, restorative practice and shared concern rely on some
level of genuine remorse or empathy from the bully.
