My child is being bullied by a child who has SEN needs. How do I address this with school? My child has been hit, kicked, spat at, name called, chased and intimidated. Many other class members have experienced this behaviour also.
Thank you for getting in touch.
We would suggest that you report the incidents to your child's school and arrange a meeting with school staff to discuss your concerns. At the meeting you can talk about the impact that the incidents are having on your child.
If you are unhappy about how the school is dealing with your concerns, you can make a complaint to the school using its official complaints procedure – you should find information on how to do so on the school website.
Where can I turn for help and advice if my child's constant bullying isn't taken seriously and dealt with?
Thank you

We suggest that you look at the school's anti-bullying policy which you should be able to find on its website, and to follow the steps laid out in it. We would also suggest that you arrange a meeting with school staff to discuss your concerns.
If you continue to be unhappy about how the school is dealing with your concerns, then you can make a complaint to the school using its official complaints procedure – you should find information on how to do so on the school website.
What if someone is bullying you who would yo tell
Thank you for getting in touch. If you have any worries or concerns try not to deal with problems on your own, there is always someone who can help.
We suggest working out who is on your helping hand – think about 5 trusted people that you would tell if you were being bullied. That could be an adult at school such as a teacher or lunchtime supervisor, a parent or carer, a friend or sibling, or perhaps another family member like a grandparent, Aunt, or Uncle.
It is important that bullying is reported to the school so that it can be investigated and stopped.
If your being bullied in class can u move classes as my son is being bullied in class most of last year and now this year can I get this class table moved
Hi, I'm sorry to hear that your son is having trouble at school. Firstly, we would recommend that you speak to your son's class teacher about these issues so that they can try and make things better for him. If you have spoken to the Teacher and are still not happy, then you should speak to the Head or a member of SLT.
Moving classes may be an option that you could discuss with his teacher if there is an alternative class he could go to, however the best thing is for the issues he is experiencing to be addressed so that he can remain where he is.
I hope things get better for him.
hi if someone was giving u dirty looks in pe and u stood face to face with them is that bullying? also if u accidently hit them with ur bag does that count to
Hi
Bullying is anything done deliberately and more than once, to make you feel sad, scared or upset. Dirty looks can be a form of emotional bullying if it is being done on purpose and several times (Several Times On Purpose) and if this is happening, you should find an adult you can tell so that they can help make it stop. Standing face to face with someone sounds like it could be intimidation and can also be emotional bullying if done repeatedly.
An accident is just that - an accident...so accidentally hitting someone with your bag isn't bullying and as long as you say sorry and try not to do it again, this shouldn't cause any more problems.
