By Elearncollege

Description Prevention of bullying in schools Diploma  This Prevention of bullying in schools diploma course starts with discussing the term 'bullying'. Some children are prone to bullying others, and the course discusses this and cyberbullying. The course dives deep into the legal aspects of bullying and reviews laws that are in place to protect children from bullies in schools and what incidents can be legally reprimanded according to government guidelines.  Bullying is not a simple phenomenon. One person is not enough to stop bullying from happening in schools. Instead, the whole school has to be actively involved in curbing it. It must be acknowledged by the school community members to recognise it as an issue that needs a solution. There should be shared knowledge about its existence to communicate openly with the teachers and their parents.  The Prevention of bullying in schools diploma course is meant for students, teachers, and parents. It contains all information necessary to deal with the alleviation of issues surrounding bullying in schools. The course, along with its exercises, will prepare you to handle problems and respond appropriately when facing situations that involve bullying. As the course discusses the legal aspects of bullying, you will understand essential regulations and acts that are in place. This knowledge will help you set boundaries when discussing bullying issues with authorities such as teachers or government officials.  The Prevention of bullying in schools diploma course mainly focuses on discussions around exceptional cases where people are bullied based on their disabilities, gender identity, race, and other prejudice-based judgements. The course is of particular use to parents as it talks about and gives advice on how to help children deal with bullies and the emotional, psychological, and sometimes physical pain that bullying can cause. The course also talks about how humans need to be open-minded and tolerant towards groups that we may not identify as our own by instilling ideas and values in children so that bullying does not occur. Children mostly learn these ideas from adults around them, which means that parents and teachers play a huge role in its eradication.  This Prevention of bullying in schools diploma course discusses bullying in schools in particular, which makes it a beneficial course for parents and those working in schools or with children, like teachers and administrators of educational institutions. A course such as this can create more inclusive, friendlier, and tolerant schools for students with all kinds of backgrounds.  The Prevention of bullying in schools diploma course focuses even more on bullying in primary and secondary school sections. It provides:  The learner's knowledge of how bullying can be eliminated. The tools and techniques that may be used to achieve this. The statistics show that this is a serious issue that needs to be dealt with. It dives deep into the factors that cause bullying, the roles and responsibilities of school administrators and teachers, modern-day bullying, cyberbullying, and social media's role in perpetuating this.  The Prevention of bullying in schools diploma course will get you acquainted with the laws and regulations that are in place to protect individuals from being bullied. Knowing this lets you understand which situations you can bring legal authorities involved. The focus is on groups that are protected by laws like minority groups and disabled individuals and the parts of the legislation that have been implemented to protect these groups from being discriminated against. Through this course, you will also learn how you can identify bullies and methods that can be used to teach children to be kinder and more caring towards others so that bullying may be prevented.  What you will learn   1: Defining Bullying  2: The bullying vocabulary  3: Position of the school  4: Talking with the children  5: People involved in bullying  6: Acting against bullying  7: Managing Bullying  8: Raising awareness  9: Peer Support  10: Preventive Strategies  Course Outcomes After completing the course, you will receive a diploma certificate and an academic transcript from Elearn college.
