Summary Note Following an introductory chapter, Chapter 2 "provides an overview of the nature, prevalence, causes and impact of bullying. Chapter 3 outlines what children and young people think about bullying... Chapter 4 describes the approach to bullying in NSW public schools, beginning with an introduction to the bullying policies in place at the national and State level. A key issue discussed in this Chapter is how to improve the implementation of anti-bullying policies, through increased accountability and transparency. Chapter 5 concerns the effectiveness of school-based prevention and intervention programs. To date, many prevention and intervention programs have resulted in only modest reductions in levels of school bullying... In Chapter 6, the Committee considers a range of additional supports for schools in addressing bullying: the need for a whole-school approach, the importance of well-trained teachers, sufficient numbers of school counsellors, and appropriate external counselling services for children who are bullied at school. Chapter 7 focuses on the emerging problem of cyber-bullying... The chapter begins with an outline of the regulatory framework for online content, followed by an overview of the debate about responsibility for addressing cyber-bullying. The effectiveness of approaches to cyber-bullying are discussed, in particular, the merits of restricting access to technology, and of a proactive prevention and protection approach based on improved education. The final chapter, Chapter 8, is concerned with future directions, and the need for greater co-ordination of anti-bullying initiatives." (p. 8-9).
