The behaviours
"You can't start to think about 'bullying' without thinking about 'power' or in particular 'inter-personal power' or 'relationships power'."
Bullying, harassment, violence and discrimination are harmful behaviours
that deprive individuals and groups of their rights, jeopardise physical and
emotional safety and undermine the wellbeing of our school communities and
society.
The role of power
Imbalance and misuse of power underpin every instance of bullying, harassment, discrimination and violence.
Defining the behaviours
Open and agreed understanding of bullying, harassment, discrimination and violent behaviour is the beginning of any comprehensive strategy to prevent these problems in schools and increase the wellbeing of our communities.
Implications
Bullying, harassment, violence and discrimination are harmful to both victims
and perpetrators.
