How does the VSB differentiate between Bullying, Peer Conflict and Mean Behaviour? Parents can increase their knowledge and access resources to support their children in creating a safe education for all. 

VSB defines: "Bullying is serious behavior that has three key features – all three must be present for the situation to be considered bullying:
  •   Power imbalance -- One child clearly has power over the other(s), which may be due to age, size, social status, and so on.
  •   Intention to harm -- The purpose of the bullying behaviour is to harm or hurt other(s) – it’s intended to be mean and is clearly not accidental.
  •   Repeated over time -- bullying behaviour continues over time, and gets worse with repetition. There is a real or implied threat that the behaviour will not stop, and in fact will become even more serious. "
For VSB definitions of Peer Conflict and Mean Behaviour:

February 26th is Pink Shirt Day and the Vancouver School Board raises awareness to stop bullying in our schools. Send your child in Pink (any pink will do!) and help promote inclusion,  acceptance and kindness. Check out these additional resources and the BC Government's ERASE Bullying campaign (Expect Respect & A Safe Education).
