There are no easy or simple solutions to bullying. The issue requires a complex approach, “from many angles,” which includes the entire school community: from students and teachers to families and administrators. These solutions also require involving school staff from drivers and nurses to cafeteria workers, too.

‘Stop Bullying’ notes that a zero-tolerance approach to bullying is not an effective approach. Nor is expulsion. What is effective, however, is focusing on a model of kindness and respect, when adults talk to children about bullying, encourage them to do what they love, and seek help when necessary.

Meanwhile, the situation was even worse in 2010-2011, when nearly a third (28%) of students were bullied.
