Safe from Bullying in extended services in and around schools

Bullying does not only happen in normal school hours, it can happen anywhere. Children who are badly bullied in school are more likely than others to be bullied outside of it too.

This guidance is for all those who work in before/after school provision and holiday playschemes, and managers and staff in extended services in and around schools. It outlines the possible bullying that might occur in extended services and describes steps to prevent it and respond to it effectively.

This document is part of a suite of guidance on preventing bullying outside schools that includes guidance on tackling bullying in various settings. The guidance builds on the existing advice on bullying in schools in: 'Safe To Learn'.
