Ontario has designated the week of November 19-25, 2017 as the Bullying Awareness and Prevention Week to help promote safe schools and a positive learning environment. During this week, Ontario students, school staff and parents are encouraged to learn more about bullying and its effect on student learning and well-being. Schools are encouraged to use this opportunity to explain the different forms bullying can take, and launch initiatives that heighten awareness of bullying and its impact on the school community. Check out Bully B.R.A.V.E. (www.bullybrave.com) for a potential Ministry-approved partner for your school.

Schools have been asked to create artwork posters that focus on a relevant theme. Each school can submit artwork for possible use on the ministry website or for future Bullying Awareness and Prevention Week materials. The ministry also encourages schools to send student artwork and success stories about their activities during this week. For more information, please consult the Ministry’s website (http://www.edu.gov.on.ca/eng/safeschools/prevention.html)
