    ANTI-BULLYING POLICY

    The Bucayab Elementary School, Bauang South District is committed to each learner’s
    success in learning within a caring, responsive, and safe environment that is free of violence
    and bullying. Our school works to ensure that all students have the opportunity and support to
    develop to their fullest potential and share a personal and meaningful bond with people in the
    school community.

    What is bullying?
    Bullying is an ongoing and deliberate misuse of power in relationships through repeated
    verbal, physical and/or social behaviour that intends to cause physical, social and/or
    psychological harm. It can involve an individual or a group misusing their power, or
    perceived power, over one or more persons who feel unable to stop it from happening.

    Bullying can happen in person or online, via various digital platforms and devices and it can
    be obvious (overt) or hidden (covert). Bullying behaviour is repeated, or has the potential to
    be repeated, over time (for example, through sharing of digital records).

    Bullying of any form or for any reason can have immediate, medium and long-term effects on
    those involved, including bystanders. Single incidents and conflict or fights between equals,
    whether in person or online, are not defined as bullying.

    Types of bullying behaviour


     Physical - examples include: hitting, pushing, shoving or intimidating or otherwise
    physically hurting another person, damaging or stealing their belongings. It includes
    threats of violence
     Verbal/written - examples include: name-calling or insulting someone about an
    attribute, quality or personal characteristic
     Social (sometimes called relational or emotional bullying)  – examples include:
    deliberately excluding someone, spreading rumours, sharing information that will
    have a harmful effect on the other person and/or damaging a person’s social
    reputation or social acceptance
     Cyberbullying - any form of bullying behaviour that occurs online or via a mobile
    device. It can be verbal or written, and can include threats of violence as well as
    images, videos and/or audio.
