Anti-Bullying Week is coordinated by the Anti-Bullying Alliance and takes place this year from 13th - 17th November
The campaign is centred around the fact that everyone is different, and everyone has their own battles to fight in life. However, we should treat all as equals
There is a focus on making everyone aware that bullying can mean different things to different people, especially children
And that there is someone to talk to if you feel you are being bullied

Anti-Bullying Week shines a spotlight on bullying and encourages all children, teachers and parents to take action against bullying throughout the year. The theme this year is 'All Different, All Equal' with the aims:
This Anti-Bullying Week we want to:
Empower children and young people to celebrate what makes them, and others, unique
Help children and young people understand how important it is that every child feels valued and included in school, able to be themselves, without fear of bullying
Encourage parents and carers to talk to their children about bullying, difference and equality
Enable teachers and other children’s workforce professionals to celebrate what makes us ‘all different, all equal’ and celebrate difference and equality. Encouraging them to take individual and collective action to prevent bullying, creating safe environments where children can be themselves.
