Course Description
Bullying can unfortunately occur anywhere and at any time. In schools, both students and occasionally teachers can be targets of bullying. This can lead to early school dropout and negatively impact mental and physical health, as well as the academic performance of individuals or groups. Such behaviour is unacceptable and must be addressed. It is essential to demonstrate that there are effective solutions to this issue.
This course is designed to educate parents, students, teachers, and headmasters on the various methods of preventing and intervening in daily aggression and victimization that happens in schools and online. Participants will learn strategies to decrease the frequency and severity of school aggression. The course includes a variety of activities, both inside and outside the classroom. Participants will prepare and deliver presentations, learn how to start a school campaign, plan a school-based aggression prevention program collaboratively, engage in role-playing games and drama, become familiar with conflict management strategies, create short videos, analyse film scenes, and examine the roles individuals play in bullying situations. By the end of the course, participants will be equipped to manage difficult and aggressive students, address bullies, support victims, and foster a peaceful and inclusive school environment. They will also be knowledgeable about different intervention and prevention programs.
