مع ظهور وسائل التواصل الاجتماعي في العقود الأخيرة ، شهد المعلمون زيادة في كل من التنمر الإلكتروني والتسلط التقليدي بين الشباب في سن المدرسة. التعليم هو الخطوة الأولى في إحداث فرق. يحتاج أعضاء هيئة التدريس والموظفون وأولياء الأمور والطلاب جميعًا إلى تثقيفهم في التعرف على التنمر والاستجابة له والوقاية منه.

Give us your lunch if you know what's good for you...
No way!

This is fun! Maybe we could sit together on the bus ride home.
Stand tall and walk in a way that shows you are a person deserving respect. Your body language can help prevent you from being a target.
Tell an appropriate adult. Telling to prevent a dangerous situation is not tattling.
Avoid being in harm's way. Getting away from a dangerous situation is not being a coward. It's being smart.
Say NO to the bully's demands from the start. If you appease a bully about small things, he'll just demand more. (Exception: If you are in physical danger, you may need to go along until you can report it to the police. It's not worth being injured over lunch money.)
Develop friendships - people who will stand up for each other - a caring community. Support others and ask for support. If someone is being bullied, speak up. If someone is excluded, include them in your play.
