Bullying doesn't just happen to 'victims', people don't 'ask for it' and they don't 'shrug it off' afterwards. Every morning, thousands of students dread school because a bully has it in for them.
Everyone has the right to feel safe and happy in school but, tragically, a shocking 67% of you admit to being taunted, intimidated, even attacked inside your school gates. Worse still, almost HALF of you are too afraid to do anything about it.
bliss want to stop the fear NOW. That's why we're campaigning for better anti-bullying policies in schools. We believe every school should have an ABC - an Anti-Bullying Council, run by you, with the help of trained counsellors (not just teachers).
The bliss ABC pledge. We want...
* Bullying to be made a criminal offence.
* Every school to have an ABC (Anti-Bullying Council) run by students with counsellors.
* Confidential drop-in centres (staffed by trained counsellors) to be available in every school.
We want YOU to join our campaign and together we'll whip your school into shape! All you have to do is sign our petition. We'll take it to downing Street and get your vote heard. Together, we'll end school terror forever.
