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.

  • I've been bullied for years and I just ignore it. I got picked on because I am fat. I'm like look I already know but you calling it out is irrelevant but I know why they bully. They bully to make them feel better about themselves because they just don't become bullies something happens to them that makes them want to bully to feel better. I challenge all of you to go up to your bully and tell him/her "Have a good day" and if they say something nice back then that's great but if its a bad comment ignore it and continue on your way. Life is too short to hide in fear of someone.

There was this one time i was in grade 4 and i told a girl i liked her scrunchie, she didn’t respond to me and i felt really embarrassed. After that experience, i decided to make mean remarks on her to which i now realize is bullying. I am now friends with her. I just had to let that out.
