My niece is bullied by people she doesnt know at school. She is continually tripped up in corridors, kicked, punched, has her food taken away from her and has verbal abuse directed at her. She feels that people dont want to befriend her as she is overweight and wears glasses. Image for her peers is vital to the point that people dont want to associate with her. The teachers blame her for her lack of friends which I feel is passing the buck. The cctv cameras I have commented upon and although some are present not enough exist. Also a staff member mentioned shadows obscuring the camera views of certain areas. She hates school and is frequently ill, as her immune system is depleted because of stress. She does after school keep fit classes, so I feel her mother is tackling the exercise issue. Despite all that trauma she wants to do well, and always does her homework. She doesnt want to be absent from school as she is ambitious and wants a good job in the future. What can be done?
