Defeat Bullying - Genna's story

We all know that bullying is a hard fact of life for some children, who may not always know who to turn to for help.

For teachers, it is important to address this issue as much as possible in the classroom, in order to provide a safe platform to discuss bullying, how it affects children and how they can get the help they need.

We’ve prepared some case studies as an extra resource to help you, as teachers, allay children’s anxieties about bullying. Check out Genna’s story below:
