 During Bullying Awareness and Prevention Week – November 18 - 22, 2019 – Ontario students, school staff and parents are encouraged to learn more about bullying and its effect on student learning and well-being. Bullying is defined as a form of repeated, persistent and aggressive behaviour directed at an individual or individuals that is intended to cause (or should be known to cause) fear and distress and/or harm to another person's body, feelings, self-esteem or reputation. Bullying occurs in a context where there is a real or perceived power imbalance. Schools are encouraged to use this opportunity to explain the different forms bullying can take. |
