Program details
Follows three students, each experiencing different forms of bullying
Alan (physical and verbal victimisation).
Alan, who is Asian, has one parent and is short and overweight. He is being repeatedly verbally teased (ethnically slurred) and pushed and shoved by one student and two other schoolmates. He is feeling down, hopeless and furious, believing there is little he can do to make the bullying go away.Dan (social isolation).
Dan desperately wants to join a social group at school but is being isolated and rejected by students who laugh at him and call him a “freak.” Dan is getting quite depressed and is thinking of staying away from school, having given up on any hope of being popular and having friends.Sarah (cyber-bullied).
Sarah is sitting in her bedroom at home studying when she receives an SMS that circulates to all her friends. The message states that she was caught “messing around” with someone else’s boyfriend at a party and threatened to harm her at school. Sarah is mortified and depressed. Not only did she not “mess around” at the party, but her reputation was being unfairly dragged through the mud.
