Children in Wales Preventing Bullying Behaviour Group

The Children in Wales Preventing Bullying Behaviours Group was set up in 2011 to provide a focus to our anti-bullying work with children and young people.  It no longer exists, however, it was an inter-agency group that recognised that effective anti-bullying practice is not the work of one agency alone.  It aimed to encourage a culture of respect that emphasised positive relationships and behaviours in Wales and to support, co-ordinate and promote the development and implementation of bullying prevention in Wales.

The objectives of the group were:

• To identify and raise awareness of current key anti-bullying resources within Wales
• To support existing anti-bullying work
• To identify encourage and share practice regarding participation and innovative anti-bullying work and promote best practice
• To provide a forum for external groups and agencies involved in anti-bullying work
• To analyse, understand and communicate key messages from children and young people
• To identify the issues that affect children and young people in schools and the wider community
• To lobby, advocate and influence at a national and local level
• To observe and secure the Welsh Government response to the UNCRC concluding observations
