"The Shocking Truth About Bullying In YOUR School And How You Can Help Stop This Problem BEFORE It Has A Chance To Harm The Success Of Your Students Now And Later In Life…"

      I’m sure you’ll agree that bullying is a serious problem that cannot be ignored. A child who is frequently bullied is at risk for serious health, self-esteem, and success problems now and later in life.

      Bullying goes way beyond just teasing. Bullies will use a combination of repeatedly teasing, threatening, and even attacking that can slowly eat away at the victim child’s self-esteem and cause problems later in life for both the victim and the bully.

      It's shocking to find that:

  • One in seven children report that they have been bullied in school.
  • Only 4% of the incidents involved adult intervention.
  • Only 11% involved peer intervention.

      What’s more? According to Professor Dan Olweus, a leading authority on bullying, bullies identified by the age of eight:

  • Are six times more likely to be convicted of a crime by the age of twenty-four and are five times more likely than non-bullies to end up with serious criminal records by the age of thirty.

      Violent television shows, movies, video games, and daily news broadcasts only serve to make our bullying problem worse. In the media, it seems a child has nowhere to turn for a positive role model, and many times the home environment does not provide one either.

      It’s sad but true: Bullying continues to become an even more serious problem.

Fortunately, There Is A Way For Your Students To Learn The Important Facts About Bullying – And Have FUN At The Same Time!

Introducing: The "BAND Together For A Bully-Free School Program"

"Listening to the children when Tim did his magic and seeing them so focused on everything he did was the best part of the program.  He got them so engaged and interested in learning about themselves and about bullying. This is a great way to get important messages across to children in an engaging way!"
- Flo Peck, Ralph Talbot Primary School

      The word "BAND" is an easy-to-remember acronym that helps students remember the main points of the presentation, which are...

The "BAND" Acronym Explained:

Bullying is never okay – Many bullies don’t realize that they are bullying and think of it as only "having a little fun". Children will learn the three types of bullying and how they affect the feelings of other people.

Ask for help if you are being bullied, or if you know someone who is – Children need to know that help from a trusted adult is available for them and they need to know how to ask.

Nobody deserves to be bullied – Just because someone is different doesn’t mean you can pick on him/her. Bullies often justify their actions by saying that the victim "deserves" bad treatment.

Do your part! – Creating a bully-free school is a team effort between the bullies, victims, bystanders, parents, teachers, and school staff. If any one of those groups fails to do their part, then bullying will remain a problem. Children will learn what they need to do, and how to do it.

      The challenge when creating this program was to teach this critical topic in a light, upbeat, and non-threatening manner without sacrificing any of the important messages that kids NEED TO HEAR.

"...necessary and appropriate for this age level."
"I enjoyed how he had the students participating in the activities. The students really enjoyed his performance. The topic was necessary and appropriate for this age level."
- Healy School PTO, Fall River, MA
