Long-term impact of bullying cannot be ignored

19 November 2009

Wesley Mission will launch its 95-page report tomorrow 20 November on the long term impact of school bullying. The Wesley Report is based on a survey of 1200 people aged 18-44 years conducted earlier this year. It shows that bullying has major long-term consequences for people and their ability to cope with adult life.

“Wesley Mission understands that peer abuse is a complex personal and social problem,” Wesley Mission CEO the Rev Keith Garner said. “As a result, bullying is not just a consideration for schools or parents; ending peer abuse is everyone’s responsibility. No-one deserves to be left out or excluded.
