Despite previous books on the topic, bullying continues to thrive, become more sophisticated, and pose serious problems for school populations in both primary and post-primary sectors.

This book will be the first definitive review of bullying in Irish education written by researchers and practitioners working in the field. The appeal of this book is twofold. First, it explores bullying from different perspectives within education, specifically pupils, teachers and principals. Second, in addition to it being research-based, it also explores the concerns, shortcomings and challenges which bullying presents in the educational environment and proposes realistic strategies and support strategies.

Given the keen interest in bullying internationally, this book provides a comparative text clearing indicating research and practice in Ireland.
