`jargon-free and concise. This is a very readable, thorough and
practical book of use to young people, parents and in particular to
school staff in preventing and dealing with bullying' - Counselling
Children and Young People (CCYP) '...the authors drive home the
strong message that bullying 'should never be accepted' and how it
can be life threatening. There is clear evidence that the training
is based on current research. I found the format innovative, with
the excellent add-on of being able to download PowerPoint training
slides from the publisher's website' - Emotional and Behavioural
Difficulties `Highly readable and practical, this is a book that
provides details of specific ways in which members of the of the
school community can collaborate to reduce the incidence of
bullying in their school' - Teacher `This is a clearly written and
well designed resource. It is likely to be of value to anyone
wishing to develop active anti-bullying policies in schools and is
designed for use as a staff development tool over a period of time,
but is also focused on the needs of parents, children and young
people themselves. It providers some excellent guidance on writing
an anti-bullying policy, a useful overview of practical strategies
to prevent and counter bullying, helpful advice for parents of
children who are being bullied, or children who are involved in
bullying others ' - SENCO Update `I like the book's message:
Bullying is an activity rather than a stereotypical role. It's no
blame approach aims to modify behaviour to avoid provoking a cycle
of escalating violence' - The Psychologist `This excellent book
begins by dispelling some myths, hoping to offer schools
constructive ways to tackle this deep-seated problem. Clear courses
of action are set out, including some for parents whose children
are bullying others, and there are photocopiable training resources
in the appendices' TES Special Needs `This is a carefully
considered and road-tested book that could be an invaluable
resource to staff seeking to develop their school's response to
bullying'- Journal of In-Service Education `Dealing with Bullying
in Schools is a very readable book and should be available in every
school in the country. What the book emphasizes is that bullying is
everyone's problem not merely teacher. This includes the Head of
the school, parents and everyone who is part of the community
within the school' - Dr L F Lowenstein, Educational, Clinical and
Forensic Psychological Consultant `The book is strong on practical
information, including handouts and overhead projector sheets, for
training staff, students and parents'- Geoff Barton, Times
Educational Supplement, Friday Magazine Developed from training
courses run by the two authors on the subject of dealing with
bullying in schools, this book is designed to work as a training
manual. It is geared towards the needs of the class teacher, the
school management team, the bullied, the bullies and the parents of
both parties. Each chapter offers a set of resources with
commentaries for these different groups, so that the reader is
provided with a complete pack of advice, guidance and resources.
The book includes: - a step-by-step guide to formulating an
anti-bullying policy for your school; - suggested strategies for
countering and preventing bullying; - detailed advice on working
with parents; - clear guidance for parents on what to do if their
child is being bullied or is doing the bullying; - tailor-made
presentations to use with colleagues and parents. Anyone involved
in this issue in a school setting should find this book invaluable.
