Every pupil should be able to learn in an environment conducive to learning. To strengthen the prevention of bullying and cyberbullying, Valérie Glatigny wants to give teaching teams a concrete tool to assess their actions and identify what can still be improved.
Preventing bullying means acting before a situation worsens. It also means regularly checking that the measures put in place are working and known to everyone.
A concrete tool to take stock
Developed as part of research by the University of Liège, a self-assessment questionnaire will enable schools taking part in the bullying and cyberbullying prevention programme to examine their practices.
Teams will be able to review prevention actions, reporting procedures, spaces for dialogue, staff training and the involvement of the various school stakeholders. This will help identify strengths and target areas for improvement.
Its use will be optional. The aim is to help teams step back and reflect on their work and focus their efforts where they are most needed.
Embedding prevention over the long term
The questionnaire will be sent by the Observatoire du Climat scolaire to participating schools at the start of their fourth year in the programme. It should help them sustain the actions undertaken and continue improving them.
Tackling bullying requires prevention, intervention and evaluation of the responses provided. By supporting teams in this process, the aim is to better protect pupils and offer them the ideal conditions to learn and succeed with peace of mind.
