Anti-bullying support for schools in Ireland
ROI schools need anti-bullying work that connects classroom practice with Cinealtas, Bi Cinealta procedures, online safety and whole-school culture.
ROI policy context
Cinealtas and the Bi Cinealta procedures create a clear whole-education context for preventing and addressing bullying behaviour in primary and post-primary schools.
This hub links to explainers for Cinealtas, primary procedures, post-primary procedures and child protection overlap. It is written to help school leaders move from policy awareness into practical classroom, pastoral and parent-facing work.
How schools can use this hub
School leaders can use the policy pages for compliance-aware planning and use the classroom pack for Anti-Bullying Week lessons, assemblies and parent communication.
For planning meetings, start with the school phase, then check whether prevention, intervention, recording, oversight and family communication are all covered. The ROI checklist gives a simple review route before deeper staff CPD or pupil workshop support.
