The students of JBCN International school have planned to organise an anti-bullying week from November 13 to November 17. As part of the event, students will get an opportunity to meet victims and experts who will talk about the difference between teasing and bullying, and the need to create awareness.

The school also plans to keep a box on the school premises for students to drop in notes about the challenges they face, which will be looked after by the enrichment cell (counselling department).

Pinky Dalal, founder of the JBCN International School said, "It is important to sensitise learners about bullying so we decided to have an anti-bullying week in school. This year's theme is "All Different All Equal". Through various workshops and interventions our aim is to empower learners to be confident and accepting. The initiative is being led by our student council and facilitated by our school teaching community. The idea is to make learners conscious, teach them to be responsible for their choices and to learn to respect and accept each other."

The session on November 13 will focus on creating awareness about 'What is bullying, and the difference between teasing and bullying. On November 15, there will be various sessions about the types of bullying, places and situations in which bullying may take place. Students will get a chance to meet and talk to victims of bullying, and teachers, family, friends who can intervene. On November 16, students will get lessons on the impact of bullying. On November 17, there will be an exhibit about spreading awareness, which will include posters and slogans on anti-bullying. There will also be a display board with handprints and every student will take an anti-bullying pledge.

The counselling department has planned different activities for Classes 1 to 10. The area of focus for different classes are as follows – Class 1-5: class bullying, Class 6-8: social bullying and Class 9-10: cyberbullying.
