Cyberbullying

 

The growing issue of adult cyberbullying is one we cannot overlook.

We frequently receive emails, phone calls, and comments from adults who have fallen victim to online harassment. In fact, we receive more reports about adult cyberbullying than kids. Unfortunately, government and law enforcement intervention in addressing this problem is often inadequate. This is why we have a dedicated team to provide support, guidance, and education to help adults combat cyberbullying effectively.

 

Designed to address the ever-growing issue of adult cyberbullying throughout the webinar, we will cover:

 

The growing prevalence of adult cyberbullying and its emotional impact.Strategies for recognising and handling online harassment.

 

Tips for preserving evidence and seeking support from service providers.

The importance of employer-led training on workplace bullying policies, both online and offline.

 

Techniques for fostering a compassionate and supportive online environment that can be passed on to the next generation.

 

Join us for this engaging and informative webinar to equip yourself with the knowledge and tools necessary to effectively handle cyberbullying and promote a safer online experience for adults. Together, we can make a difference in addressing the challenges of adult cyberbullying and create a more resilient online community.

 

All ticket holders will receive a recording and resources even if they can't make the actual live event.

This month on SchoolTV - The State of Youth Mental Health

 

Parents and carers can play a crucial role in their children's mental health. As a result, staying informed on the current state of youth mental health is vital, as it not only affects individuals, but also families and communities. According to recent research, the frequency of mental health disorders among young people is increasing, with anxiety, depression, and self-harm being among the most common challenges.

 

One of the reasons being attributed to this rise is the heightened stress and anxiety that many young people face in today's society. Academic success, social media, and family issues are all influencing factors. Many young people are still suffering the long-term consequences of the pandemic, such as social isolation, uncertainty, and loss.

 

Parents can play an important role in their children's mental health. Creating a safe and open environment for your children to talk about their emotions, thoughts, and feelings is vital. Encouraging healthy habits like regular exercise, a balanced diet, and proper sleep can help reduce their stress levels and boost your child's overall mental health. There are also many resources and services available to children, adolescents, and their families, such as school counsellors, various mental health organisations, support lines, and of course, mental health professionals. It is important to remember that seeking help is a show of strength, not weakness, and that early intervention is critical in addressing young people's mental health difficulties.

 

This edition of SchoolTV, discusses some of the major mental health issues affecting young people and how to support a child experiencing them. We hope you take time to reflect on the information offered in this month’s edition, and we always welcome your feedback.

 

If you do have any concerns about the wellbeing of your child, please contact the school for further information or seek medical or professional help.
