Updates to our Secondary Bullying Programme

We have been busy updating our programmes ready for the next academic year and have made a few changes to the secondary version of our Bully 4 U programme. Whatever happens with the new RSHE draft guidance we will ensure that the content is in line with the final published version.

We have been getting more people booking for the sections on sexual and sexist bullying aspects. We have done some updating on those sections and from September will now give the audience the chance to speak to the character of Grace who was experiencing the harassment and bullying in the drama. This replaces the section where we used to interview the character, Louisa, about homophobic bullying.

You may have seen that in April this year, the National Crime Agency, gave an alert to all schools about 'sextortion'. The programme already covered online bullying and nudes but the drama has now been updated to include content to help schools pass on the key messages on sextortion. The new content draws on the alert guidance and looks at how to spot malicious attempts to bully using images and what to do if someone finds themselves being extorted.

If you have any questions about the changes then please contact us.

If you haven't booked your Bully 4 U session for 24/25 then please get in touch. We are now making these available all year round though we know that many schools like to do these around Anti Bullying Week in November and this gets booked up quickly![.]
