Needs Assessment and Awareness Raising Programme for Bullying in Schools.

The project aims to assess needs with regards to bullying in schools, to sensitise and train teachers, parents and pupils, to recognise and effectively manage violent situations in the school setting and to raise community awareness.
The ultimate aim is to develop recommendations at National and European levels for the promotion of support networks for the prevention of bullying in schools. Expected results are the development of empowerment and of trustworthy, secure relationships between pupils, teachers and parents; these results will be obtained by assessment of the needs in a representative sample of schools in the four partner countries and by intervention based on group work discussion, social skills training, conflict resolution and anger management techniques. Main beneficiaries will be schoolchildren; main target groups will be schoolchildren, families, school teachers and administrators and the general community.
