They are asked to identify what they believe a bully looks and sounds like, which can spark an interesting discussion.

Following on from discussing where to go for help and advice both in and outside of school, the students take part in a group project to act out a television or radio advert to give advice to these being bullied, these are then peer assessed. The booklet concludes in a class debate as to whether head teachers should be able to discipline students for cyber crimes which occur outside of school.
