ABSTRACT
Anti-bullying campaign (ABC) is a confidential service where students might feel more willing and less threatened to discuss their problems in a non-hierarchical way. ABC is student-led and student-managed. All students are given the opportunity to be selected for training as a counsellor. Clients have achieved productive solutions to the problems they face, or at least some of them. They have been able to use confidential, safe and non-hierarchical space to explore the feelings arising from and contributing to their role as victim or bully. Acland Burghley in Camden, London, already enjoyed a reputation in 1989 as a happy, secure and open school. Acland Burghley was one of the first London schools to take part in the survey. This was carried out in March 1991, preceded and followed by two half-day training sessions for staff. The anti-bullying policy was the first to be adopted by a Camden school.
