Look out for Signs someone’s being bullied

• They become unhappy or withdrawn. • They start avoiding college or university. • They’ve got physical injuries they don’t want to talk about. Action Are you being bullied? • It probably won’t stop until you tell someone you trust. • Act confidently to send out the message that you’re not afraid. • Stay with others - you’re more likely to be picked on if you’re on your own. • Keep a diary and keep all text messages as evidence of what happens. You can use it later to show you’re telling the truth. Is your friend being bullied? • Speak to your tutor. • Take their worries seriously. • Stick up for them. • They might want you to be with them when they tell their parents / carers, or a tutor they’re being bullied.
