Student Action Plan Against Bullying

Ready to take action to address bullying? Maybe not sure how to start? As a student, bullying is something that impacts you, your peers, and your school – whether you’re the target of bullying, a witness, or the person who bullies. Bullying can end, but that won’t happen unless students, parents, and educators work together and take action.

Tell Us Why You Care

  • 1: I care because they get bullied about their height
    2: I care because this person is special for me and even if they're not special, I still care because I feel bad for knowing and not doing anything
    3: I care because bullying can make someone harm themselves
    4: I care because bullying can cause someone to have problems with socializing and not having any friends because of what they been through
    5:I care because I can’t see someone feeling sad and lonely and look and do nothing

  • I care that bullying stops because if bullying doesn't stop more people will be hurt and sad. If bullying spreads it can make safe places not safe anymore.

  • B/c i hurts to be bullied. I was bullied from 1st to 6th grade and it was hard i did not even realise what was happening till 5th grade. I was friends with my bully before i realised i was being bullied.




  • I care about bullying because even when looking at it from different perspectives bullying is still something that can only have negative consequences. There may a reason to it, but it doesn't mean it should be taken to such a matter. It's only hurtful to the one doing it and receiving it, nothing positive comes out of it.



    Iris — 14
  • This could hurt not only the victim but their family. Bullying could lead to self-harm which could deeply affect the parents and siblings. I hate to see people get hurt emotionally so I want people to stop bullying when I see it.



    Nicky — 13
  • I care about bullying because no one should be treated in a way where they are under another. Also it can have affect on that person and even the friends and family of that person.
