Schools—bullying

Discussion of matter of public importance

MR SPEAKER: I have received letters from Mrs Burke, Mrs Dunne, Dr Foskey and Ms Porter proposing that matters of public importance be submitted to the Assembly for discussion. In accordance with the provisions of standing order 79, I have determined that the matter proposed by Mrs Dunne be submitted to the Assembly, namely:

The impact and significance of bullying in ACT schools.

MRS DUNNE (Ginninderra) (3.31): Mr Speaker, the impact of bullying on the ACT school system is one of considerable and growing concern to many who are involved in education. The government’s responses to recent cases of bullying in ACT schools raise a number of worrying questions about the extent of bullying, its impact on students, teachers and parents, and what, if anything, is being done or can be done to address the various issues involved.
