Actionwork in association with North Somerset Council, is
producing Britain's National Anti-Bullying Conference for Young
People. The conference will include the launch of anti-bullying
week.
An uplifting and positive event with over 500 young people and
specialists contributing from all over Britain and abroad about
bullying, sharing anti-bullying strategies and resources and
showcasing best practice in dealing with and tackling bullying.
Delegates attending the conference will vote on a petition
calling for parliament to 'provide intensive anti-bullying training
for all new teachers as part of their teacher training, and to
existing teachers through intensive short programmes. The proposal
was tabled as an early day motion by John Penrose MP and has been
signed by over 57 MPs. The IPowerI young management crew will
present the petition to parliament at the end of anti-bullying
week.
