Summary: reaction to the bully

Be as confident as you can. Face the bully or the bullies and tell them to stop. Try and be calm and move away from them.

Don’t hit out. If they call you names: If they tease you or slag

you off, try not to react and walk away. Don’t let them see that they have hurt you.

It’s not about you: Remember: you have done nothing wrong. The bullying is not your fault. The bully has the problem, not you.

Tell someone!
