Anti-Bullying Week 10 – 14th November 2025

7 Nov 2025

THE CONCEPT OF ‘POWER’ For this year’s Anti-Bullying Week theme, Power for Good, we focus on the importance of using power responsibly. The definition of bullying involves a power imbalance, where one person uses their power to control or harm another. It’s essential to help students understand that where we may have power and/or influence, we have a choice and a responsibility to use that positively, encouraging kindness, support, and standing up for others. It’s important to teach students that power needs to be used carefully. Power should never be used to dominate, control, coerce or manipulate others. By equipping students with the skills to recognise power dynamics and encourage respect for each other’s rights, we can foster an environment where everyone feels they belong, are safe and valued.
