FAQs — Bullying

My child is being bullied at school and I am becoming increasingly worried about her.
What can I do to stop this happening?

If your child is being bullied, you should advise your child to tell her teacher. You should also tell the teacher. If you are not happy with the response, you can discuss the issue with the head teacher. If there is still a problem, you can contact the education authority. All schools should have an anti-bullying policy and you have the right to ask to see your school’s policy.
