Northern Ireland policy context
The Addressing Bullying in Schools Act (Northern Ireland) 2016 gives schools a clear legal context for anti-bullying policy, recording and review. Campaign activity should therefore connect with real school procedures, not sit apart from them.
This hub links to the NI policy pages covering the Act summary, policy template and Education Authority resources.
How schools can use this hub
Principals, pastoral leads and anti-bullying coordinators can use the campaign resources for November planning, then use the policy checklist to review consistency in recording, language and response.
For pupil-facing activity, use the online guides now or register for the reviewed P4-P7 resource.
