Personal Education Quiz - Bullying - Age 7-11 (Answers)
Bullying is a major topic in PSHE and one that is visited again and again. In this quiz, specifically written for KS2 aged children in years 3-6, we reiterate what bullying is, the damage it can cause, and what we should do when faced with it.
Bullying is a very serious matter. It can affect anybody at any time. It is a series of unpleasant behaviours aimed at a single person with the aim of causing harm or upset . Bullying can impact on a person's physical and emotional health and MUST be stopped immediately.
Just as anyone can be bullied, anyone can become a bully. It is important that you understand what behaviours are considered bullying so that you can identify if you are being bullied - but also if you are bullying someone else. It is also important that you understand what to do if you, or someone you know, is being bullied in order to keep everyone safe and to stop the behaviours as quickly as possible.
