No Blame Approach

`I just wanted to tell you that we love the NO BLAME Approach! It has absolutely worked wonderfully' - Jennifer Thomas-Simmons, LCSW, Prevention Specialist, Office of Prevention Programs, Student Support Services 'The system is totally opposed to the traditional approach which looks to punishment to regulate pupils behaviour. As a systematic and rational approach to an ever pressing school problem, these materials are highly recommended and they deserve to succeed' - Education Review This video and accompanying INSET workbook have been developed from a successful, thought-provoking, school-based programme to deal with bullying. It asks staff to question existing practice, challenging the idea that support for victims or punishment of bullies will prevent future incidents. The video introduces a step-by-step, teacher-led initiative that we have found to be successful in many schools. Victims report that the bullying has stopped and the perpetrators, surprised that they are not being punished, express helpful attitudes and change their behaviour. The materials can be used for school-based in service training and development.
