These rules were set out in handbooks (but not in law) issued by the Department of Education and Skills. The rules about bullying in schools and the rights of students and parents when bullying occurs are set out below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In September 2013 the Department published the Anti-Bullying Handbook for Primary and Secondary Schools. Among the procedures was a requirement that all schools must have an anti-bullying policy within the framework of their general code of conduct. These bylaws replaced the 1993 Guidelines Against Bullying Behavior in Elementary and Secondary Schools handbook.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Children First: National Guidance for the Protection and Welfare of Children, states that bullying in schools is a particular problem given the fact that children spend a large amount of their time at school and are part of their social circles. In cases of serious bullying where the behaviour is considered to be possibly abusive, it should be reported to Tusla or the Garda.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>What is bullying?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Bullying is defined in the Department of Education and Skills guidelines as unwanted negative verbal, psychological or physical behaviour by an individual or group against another person (or persons) that is repeated over time. Posting an offensive or hurtful public message, image or statement on a social networking site or other public forum where that message, image or statement may be viewed and\/or repeated by others is also considered bullying behaviour.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Bullying can occur at any age, in any environment, and can be long term or short term.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Cyberbullying<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Cyberbullying is bullying over the Internet or mobile phone, often through social networking sites used by young people. A Guide to Cyberbullying has been produced as a joint initiative between the Office of Internet Safety, the National Centre for Technology in Education and Barnardos. The booklet is intended to raise awareness of all aspects of cyberbullying, including how to identify it and how to prevent it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Effects of bullying<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Many kids who are being bullied are afraid to speak up. They fear they will be bullied more if they tell anyone. Reports have shown that as young people get older, they are less likely to tell anyone. They become increasingly isolated, experience depression and, in extreme cases, may hurt themselves or attempt suicide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Signs of bullying<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Fear of going to school<\/li><li>Poor or deteriorating schoolwork, inability to concentrate<\/li><li>Withdrawn attitude<\/li><li>Depresion<\/li><li>Loss of confidence<\/li><li>Resistance to leave<\/li><li>Shortage of money<\/li><li>Torn clothes, broken glass, missing school books<\/li><li>Repeated signs of bruising and injury<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Why do people bully?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Very often, bullies suffer from low self-esteem and lack of confidence. They may suffer from violence in the home. In other cases, they may be going through painful changes in their lives, for example, bereavement or divorce. They may want attention or control. If you think your child may be a bully, it is important to recognize it and help your child deal with it. You should talk to the classroom teacher about this bullying behaviour and look at how it could be changed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Procedimientos contra la intimidaci\u00f3n para las escuelas primarias y secundarias<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Anti-bullying Manual for Primary and Secondary Schools published by the Department of Education and Skills requires that the anti-bullying policy be part of the written code of conduct in all schools. Each school must follow these procedures in developing its anti-bullying policy. The main procedures are:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Strong emphasis on the prevention of bullying behaviour, through the promotion and development of a positive school culture and climate, based on inclusion, respect and practical advice on how to achieve this.<\/li><li>A school-wide approach to preventing and addressing bullying behavior.<\/li><li>Todas las escuelas deben cumplir con la plantilla est\u00e1ndar para desarrollar su pol\u00edtica anti-bullying.<\/li><li>Schools should publish their anti-bullying policy on their website and give it to the parents' association.<\/li><li class=\"translation-block\">Make it clear that the definition of <em>bullying<\/em> includes cyberbullying and identity-based bullying (such as homophobic and racist bullying).<\/li><li>Clear procedures for investigating, recording and dealing with harassment.<\/li><li>System of oversight involving the school principal reporting regularly to the Board of Trustees and a requirement for the Board to conduct an annual review of the school's anti-bullying policy and its implementation.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>How do you stop bullying?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Adult intervention is usually necessary. Bullying behavior must be challenged or it will become normal and get worse. If you believe someone is being bullied, you must provide opportunities for them to talk to you. It will take time, but if you send a clear message that the bullying is unacceptable and does not need to continue, eventually the young person will be able to trust you enough to tell you. If you think your child is being bullied, you should talk to the classroom teacher or principal. If, for some reason, school staff cannot resolve the issue, you can report the matter to the chair of the school's Board of Trustees for attention. The Governing Board is legally responsible for the day-to-day running of the school and has a duty of care to its pupils.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Department of Education and Skills can advise you on how to proceed with a complaint. The Department of Education and Skills itself has no power to investigate complaints.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Tackle Bullying website is a national website to prevent, intervene, and resolve bullying and cyberbullying for youth, parents, and teachers.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hay reglas respecto al bullying entre estudiantes de primaria y secundaria en las escuelas.
