If you know or suspect your child may be bullied or is displaying bullying behaviour please let your young person’s school know.
In the first instance contact the school. Let the appropriate person at the school know – this maybe guidance staff in a high school and in primary schools there will be an anti-bullying co-ordinator for you to contact.
