GOVERNMENT TAKES ACTION AGAINST BULLYING

Released on November 14, 2013

Today, Education Minister Don Morgan joined Legislative Secretary Jennifer Campeau, along with students, teachers, school division administrators and community organizations to release Saskatchewan’s Action Plan to Address Bullying and Cyberbullying.

“No child should ever have to experience bullying,” Morgan said.  “Unfortunately, that is the reality for a number of students across the country and right here in our own province.  Ms. Campeau has done a tremendous job of engaging with our communities and their feedback helped to develop an action plan that will address bullying in Saskatchewan.”

Based on the recommendations contained in the report, the government will take the following action: 

  • update policies and procedures in the education sector to ensure consistency in prevention, rapid response and intervention in bullying incidents;
  • develop an anonymous online reporting tool for the reporting of bullying incidents;
  • assess the implications for Saskatchewan of upcoming federal cyberbullying legislation;
  • support students to develop appropriate and responsible online behaviour; 
  • provide a stand-alone website for anti-bullying tools and resources for students, families and educators; and
  • engage youth in building solutions to address bullying.

“I would like to thank those who participated in the consultation process, as your input was carefully considered in the recommendations included in this report,” Campeau said.  “A common theme we heard throughout the consultation process is that it takes a community to raise a child and support our youth.  We all have a role to play, and this is evident within the recommendations put forth.”

“The Canadian Red Cross is thrilled to partner with the Government of Saskatchewan, other community organizations and education partners, to help address bullying,” Red Cross in Saskatchewan Provincial Director Cindy Fuchs, said.  “We look forward to working together to build on the bullying prevention education that the Red Cross provides.”
