Teachers TV: Bullied: Verbal and Physical

Bullying is an issue that affects almost every school. Bullying, whether by groups or an individual ‘school bully’, can be one of the hardest things for a pupil to cope with at school. Bullied is a series of assembly starters for secondary and primary students that features interviews with young people who have been bullied.

In Bullied: Verbal and Physical, a 12-year-old talks about what being bullied meant to him, and how he learned to overcome the bully at his school. For teachers, this short film could prompt questions to pupils including: When would you know that playground games are becoming bullying? How could bullying start? What would you do if you thought one person in your class was being bullied?
