Hi, I'm not sure if this is what you're looking for sorry, supporting both child and family during challenging times would be best practice.

Supporting a child whilst they are present without their parent/carers involves being sensitive and attentive, aware that the bullying would of caused fear, upset, and intimidation which impacts on a child's confidence and self esteem.

Dealing with bullying provides a way to support a child. Knowing situations are being diffused and assessed to minimise the risk of it happening again reassures the victim and family.

Bullying resources on NSPCC - activities & setting resources

Your anti-bullying policies, procedures & actions will help to see how you support children and famillies who experience issues involved with bullying.

How you plan and promote working together, explain to children how they have a right by law to be protected, that their body is theirs, acknowledge times & places where bullying might occur, monitor, intervene & challenge inappropriate behaviour, understand difficult times, transitions, bereavement, boredom, low self esteem & attracting attention, encourage the use of the word 'no' and sharing distressing information from both sides, have someone who children & family feel comfortable turning to in times of need, consultation & in conclusion.

Opportunities to reflect on behaviour: time out, breather, cool & calm, space.
Body language for times of conflict - eye contact, facial expression.
Levels of supervision
Knowledge of who to involve in situations that feel out of control.
Supporting the act of disclosure - buddy time, councils, why bully, playground pals, amnesty discussion - no names just talk.
Reporting incidents - how & who to contact.
Confidentiality
Do parents feel a setting deals with bullying effectively - surveys & supporting disclosure.
Parenting and bullies - from oldham.gov.uk safe parenting, from kidscape my child is a bully,

I hope this helps a little xx

Bullying policies should be outlined when a member of staff has induction training action for children encourage the reporting of bullying , staff are to record incidents and analyse impact of the bullying , watch for trends and record and report these to the manager. Look at cases where there is repeat cases and thin about outside agencies help plan a meeting to consider risk and plan safeguards.is the bullying causing significant harm do child protection procedures need to be applied.looking at incidents to see if criminal behaviour such as physical or sexual assaults, hate or harassment crimes have been committed in these cases the manager need to decide if the police need to be informed. Staff are trained to spot changes in a child’s behaviour and respond to these changes. Understand that bullies might be being bullied themselves. Acknowledging the distress sthat bulling causes create opportunities for those children to make friends. working with bullied children like anticipating emotions and finding a quite place to talk , using this experience as a learning experience for the child giving them praise for the bravery it has taken to talk about this. Making them know you don’t believe what is being said about the child. Finding out the facts and seeking information from other sources , give the child a chance to think of their own solutions to the bullying using the child’s others strengths to help them counter their bullying. encourage the child into new skills or clubs to boost confidence. Working with the child who is the bully. Staff must respond immediately in a calm manner, help the bully by talking to tham about the problem and find out why they think this is happening. Asking the child to describe how they see the situation . focus on the bullying bshaviour rather than the child. Give a clear indication of the upset caused. Not to accept excuses. Explore the ways people view bullying with the child. In the long term assess what it is the child is getting out of bullying and whether the child is being bullied themselves. Explore how to deal with the reasons for the behaviour. Helping to see the bullied child’s point of view. Encourage the child to find better ways of feel better about themself like clubs and new skills. Help them to help weaker children, reward good behaviour to other children and closely monitor the child or young person.help get staff to develop sanctions and behavioural management statergies designed to deal with persistent bullying. you can add that families can be help with meeting the staff and talking about issuse which are causing the child anxiety or to be a bully managment behaviour lan that can be carried out at home as well for bullying child . statergies for helping families hel understand their child is being bullied and how they can help their child build resilences and rotect themselves from bullying
