Anti-Bullying week 2018: 'Choose respect'

The theme of Anti-Bullying Week 2018 will be choosing respect.

The theme for Anti-Bullying Week, which will run from 12-16 November 2018, has been announced as ‘Choose Respect’.

The Anti-Bullying Alliance (ABA), which coordinates the annual campaign, chose the theme based on a consultation with more than 800 children, teachers and members.

ABA said responses suggested children and young people can set a positive example by opting to respect each other at school, in their homes and communities, and online, and showing bullying as a behaviour choice was a top priority.

ABA will hold an ‘Odd Socks Day’ on the first day of Anti-Bullying Week, encouraging children to wear odd socks to school to raise money for the organisation.
