Explain to students that people have different abilities and build empathy in the classroom so student differences are appreciated rather than bullied. Being understanding of one another is a skill that must be learned, students should not be expected to know this inherently. The classroom environment should be supportive and encourage this positive behaviour

In the context of SWPBIS, viewing bullying as a systemic issue means recognising that it is influenced by various factors within the school environment, such as the relationships between students and staff, the norms and expectations established by the school community, and the overall culture of respect and inclusivity. By taking a systemic approach, schools can implement strategies that not only address bullying incidents as they occur but also work proactively to prevent them from happening in the first place. This may involve promoting positive behaviours and values, fostering a sense of belonging and connectedness among students, providing clear expectations for behaviour, and implementing consistent consequences for inappropriate action

viewing bullying as a systemic school climate issue opens up a range of prevention and intervention strategies beyond simply punishing individual perpetrators. Approaches like SWPBS focus on cultivating a positive school culture where bullying is less likely to occur, ultimately creating safer and more supportive environments for all students.
