Developed in partnership with Social Marketing @ Griffith University, Stand Up for Respect supports schools to enhance their own bullying prevention efforts by implementing a variety of evidence-based initiatives.
With a long-term goal of reducing domestic violence in Queensland, Stand Up for Respect empowers students to advocate for respectful relationships for themselves and others. It is designed to help students recognise and respond to bullying situations of all kinds, whether physical, verbal, social or online.
1. Two Stand Up for Respect classroom sessions, delivered by a Life Ed Queensland Senior Educator
2. Two classroom lessons led by the classroom teacher, using resources provided by Life Ed
3. A selection of school community activities that build on the school’s existing efforts to prevent bullying
4. Sharing key messages with the school community, promoting awareness and understanding of bullying prevention.
Life Ed delivers two memorable and fun learning experiences in Grades 5 and 6 classrooms. These sessions are designed to give students the knowledge and skills to recognise bullying behaviours and to stand up for themselves and others.
School teachers lead two short lessons in their classrooms with easy-to-use Life Ed resources to reinforce students’ learning and the application of their new knowledge!
Life Ed provides schools with a selection of media resources, including newsletter articles and social media templates, to extend the reach of bullying prevention efforts within the school community.
With 1 in 3 Queensland children experiencing bullying, Stand Up for Respect schools empower parents and teachers to manage bullying concerns through:
