The Method of Shared Concern
In Ken Rigby's latest book on bullying in schools, the renowned international expert provides an in-depth, research-based examination of The Method of Shared Concern. Originally conceived by Swedish Psychologist Anatol Pikas, and adapted in line with ground-breaking government-sponsored studies in Australia, The Method of Shared Concern describes the multi-stage process in which suspected bullies and their victims are individually interviewed, and eventually brought together in an effort to reach resolution. Intended primarily for use by teachers and school counsellors The Method of Shared Concern demonstrates through practical example and real-world case studies how the method can be applied in any school environment, as one important way in which cases of bullying can be effectively managed.
Bullying Interventions in Schools
Dealing effectively with the problem of bullying in schools is now recognized as a major challenge for educators of young people. Successful interventions to stop, or even reduce, bullying in schools are difficult to achieve. However, the case for improving the effectiveness of school interventions in cases of bullying is overwhelming. More attention needs to be paid to what can be done in addressing actual cases of bullying, as well as seeking to create a school environment in which the task may be more manageable. Schools need to be aware of the range of approaches that may be adopted and applied in dealing with individual cases.

Bullying in Schools
Bullying is now widely recognised as a serious problem that affects many children in schools. It can take many forms, including direct verbal and physical harassment and indirect forms such as deliberate exclusion and the targeting of individuals using cyber technology. Continual and severe bullying can cause both short term and long term damage, making it difficult for victims to form intimate relationships with others and for habitual bullies to avoid following a delinquent lifestyle and becoming perpetrators of domestic violence. Even though this type of abuse affects many of our school children, Ken Rigby believes there are grounds for optimism. This passionate and motivating book shows that there are ways of reducing the likelihood of bullying occurring in a school and effective ways of tackling cases when they do occur. Using up-to-date studies, Bullying in Schools helps us to understand the nature of bullying and why it so often takes place in schools. Importantly, it examines and evaluates what schools can do to promote more positive peer relationships within the school community and take effective and sustainable action to deal with problems that may arise. Teachers, parents, school leaders, policy makers, and health professionals will find it invaluable and empowering.
