All Together Now! provides learning and examples of good practice for teachers and school management teams, in order to encourage a culture in which bullying is less likely to occur. In particular, this report recognises the benefits of two strategies to instil an anti-bullying culture within any school. First, it describes a whole school approach to tackling bullying and promoting positive behaviour, with children and young people participating in their school’s decision-making processes. Positive changes in school anti-bullying policy, together with the ongoing development of better professional practice and peer support, are more likely if everyone connected to the school is informed and offered the opportunity to play a part. Second, All Together Now! demonstrates how creating an effective anti-bullying ethos is dependent upon creating a ‘telling environment’. To achieve this, pupils, staff, and parents and carers need to be consulted and involved.
