KiVa whole-school approach, where you get as many stakeholders as possible (teachers, parents, students, etc) involved in fostering wellbeing at school. At the end of the game you formulate concrete goals and actions, using the SMART acronym: SPECIFIC: Can everyone understand it immediately, without different interpretations? MEASURABLE: How can you know when the goal is reached? ASSIGNABLE: Who is going to do it? REALISTIC: Is it achievable? TIME-RELATED: In what timeframe will it be realized? The course of the game will be influenced by what kind of (cyber)bullying policy your school has already developed. A lot of building blocks may already be present, such as a confidential counsellor or a definition of what the school sees as bullying. These can easily be transposed to cyberbullying. If the school has not developed such a policy yet, building blocks will present themselves that will be relevant to developing one with a particular emphasis on cyberbullying. To start with Cyber-Scan, provide an atmosphere for the participants that gives them the feeling that they can talk freely. Work with a team of about 5 key actors (head teachers, care coordinators, prevention coordinators, student counsellors…). The participants should have a special interest in or connection to (cyber)bullying.

They then often act too harshly or downplay the matter. And they often only tackle the incident, but not the context. FASE 3: They think of it as something that happens M-ACTIE-MALISATIE 30 MINUTEN outside of school and that they don’t have Definitie van actiepunten. a responsibility for. That is why Cyber-Scan stresses the importance of a whole-school approach, where you look at fostering wellbeing in every aspect of school life. It takes some effort to keep on stressing this and trying to persuade policymakers, CYBER-SCAN HAS 3 PHASES: parents, teachers and so on to see it in PHASE 1: 40 MINUTES Take stock during a playful group discussion this light. By providing a concrete tool, we of all the building blocks of the current manage to lower this threshold. school policy that tackle cyberbullying, and place these among the building blocks that Most of the time, people who specialize in the 4 aspects of a strong policy (prevention, working creatively with young people and detection, intervention, aftercare) should digital media don’t have a lot of expertise cover. For every building block, discuss in handling delicate subjects and situations whether this is already present in the like bullying. On the other hand, people current policy or not, and if it scores as a who are specialized in the prevention and strong point or as a working point.
