PROGRAM CONTENT
Core components of the program are implemented at the school, classroom, and individual levels.

The Olweus Bullying Prevention Program is a school wide program designed to prevent or reduce bullying throughout the school setting. The multi-component approach involves individuals, classrooms, entire schools, as well as parents and communities, to successfully address bullying in schools.

Outcomes of the Program


Statistics show how successful implementation of the Olweus Bullying Prevention Program can reduce school bullying.

Outcomes have included:

Fifty percent or more reductions in student reports of being bullied and bullying others. Peer and teacher ratings of bullying problems have yielded similar results.
Significant reductions in student reports of general antisocial behavior such as school bullying, vandalism, school violence, fighting, theft, and truancy.
Significant improvements in the classroom social climate as reflected in students' reports of improved order and discipline, more positive social relationships, and more positive attitudes toward schoolwork and school.
Greater support for students who are bullied, and stronger, more effective interventions for students who bully.
