The Anti-Bullying Alliance has published a new report into bullying and pupil experiences in England. The report summarises findings from a bullying and wellbeing questionnaire involving nearly 45,000 school pupils in 2023. Key findings show: 23% of pupils reported being frequently bullied in the last few weeks; 6% of pupils reported being frequently bullied online; and both pupils who reported being bullied and those who bullied others, were significantly more likely to report poor wellbeing.
