Peer mediation or peer counselling is an approach to impacting on bullying in primary and secondary schools by training pupils to be ‘Peer Mediators’ or ‘counsellors’.

This well proven, highly effective method of impacting on school based bullying is still viewed by some as radical. Children and young people will benefit by learning about:

  • Issues of Confidentiality
  • Welcoming your ‘client’
  • Using active listening skills
  • Using Open and Closed Questions to enable your client to tell you his or her story
  • How to reflect back feelings and how to check you have understood what the client has told you
  • Exploring options for resolving the bullying issue with your client
