Six basic approaches

Dealing effectively with the problem of bullying in schools is now recognised as a major challenge for educators of young people.

Bullying Interventions in Schools examines in detail the six major intervention methods: the traditional disciplinary approach; strengthening the victim; mediation; restorative practice; the support group method; the method of shared concern.
