This forum is prepared to debrief what we have experienced during several months regarding the policy 5.45. We all agree to have an open and honest discussion about this matter.
We have several speakers who presented their opinion for the Burnaby Board of Education regarding the policy 5.45 and a member of the BCCPAC.
For our discussion, two organizations will be introduced to introduce their measure of dealing with bullying in schools. One is a Bully Police USA, a watch-dog organization in the USA advocating for bullied children and reporting on state anti bullying laws The other is a Canadian teacher’s successful endeavor that make his town, Cochrane, Alta the world’s first community officially proclaim itself “Striving to be bully-free.”
