<br/><br/> This valuable book offers a comprehensive guide for educators in understanding, preventing and stopping school bullying. To effectively cope with school bullying it is essential to understand the issues underpinning student peer-group dynamics in the school, classroom and community, and this view lies at the heart of this book. The author presents a strength-based approach to addressing school bullying within a systemic context, with particular emphasis given to the role of prosocial behavior. The book translates research into practice with a strong evidence-based application, and draws on the author's experience in developing and conducting national and international school-based anti-bullying and mental health interventions. Each chapter contains practical information and research on school/classroom/community applications, trends and issues in the field and practical ideas for implementing anti-bullying measures. Consideration is given to promoting positive peer relations in schools, the dynamics of peer groups, cyber bullying, and the nature and effects of bullying on vulnerable groups, including students with special educational needs and disabilities and LGBTQ young people. With school bullying now a matter of international concern not only to children, young people and their caregivers, but to schools and teachers at the forefront, this book will be important reading for all students in psychology, education, health and social welfare, as well as school administrators, teachers, counsellors and childcare professionals.
