Motion Text

That this House notes bullying is always wrong, that bullying should be punished, and that children who bully need to understand the full seriousness of their actions; condemns Liberal Democrat controlled Bristol City Council for its continuing recommendation to teachers that they should not punish or blame pupils who bully other pupils; and calls on that Council to amend urgently its ill-judged and dangerous anti-bullying guidance to schools.
