Inside this Insights with NetSupport episode…
In this episode, we’re joined by Tom to explore bullying and mental health and discuss the cracks within our education systems. Tune in to hear Tom share valuable tips and insights – check out the questions we asked him below.
- How did you become a go-to speaker for bullying and mental health?
- What are some common concerns you’re hearing about from schools?
- What challenges are students facing that were different from pre-COVID or perhaps just not as evident before?
- Social-emotional learning (SEL) and student well-being are becoming much more commonplace terms in schools, even “trendy”. For schools to get it right, what do you think needs to happen?
- We believe it’s better for schools to be proactive instead of reactive – are there things they can be doing now to get ahead of potential problems students face online?
- You talk about becoming a “no bullying school.” What does that mean and how can schools aim to meet that objective?
- Where can people go to learn more about the resources you provide?
