Sugar launched our Stand Up Speak Out Campaign to tackle bullying at every level: the bullies, the bullied and those who stand by and do nothing.
Together with ChildLine, we're encouraging young women to Stand Up and Speak Out against any forms of bullying and intimidation - physical, mental and emotional.
To support our campaign, we're asking all readers to sign our Stand Up Speak Out Manifesto.
- I, the undersigned, support the Sugar/ChildLine Stand Up Speak Out campaign.
- I understand that NO-ONE - at school, at home or anywhere else - has the right to abuse, intimidate or bully me.
- If I am being bullied or intimidated, I will try to keep a diary of when, where and what is happening and report the bully to the teacher or other responsible adult.
- If a friend is bullying someone, I will try to talk to them, and if necessary report it.
- If I see any bullying, I will not ignore it, but tell someone about it.
- I support the idea of EVERY school having a professional counselling service, which can listen to and advise me in complete confidence.
- If I need to talk to someone about bullying I will contact ChildLine, by calling 0800 1111 or clicking on childline.org.uk

ive just left s4 at high school and i got bullied from p3 up until halfway through s2 i used to come home every day crying and with another bump or bruise and i never told my mum what was happening i just used to always say "its ok i fell again" until one day i came home with "nasty" words all over my bag and juice all over my coat and someone had even went into my bag and stole some of my things, after that my mum told the school everytime something bad happened but they never done anything about it, till in 2nd year my mum said to the head teacher "YOUL DO SOMETHING OR IL CALL THE BOARD OF EDJUCATION AND HAVE EVERY ONE OF YOU FIRED " That did it the school thought it easier to try sort this out than have a black mark put against them . the reason im saying this is because telling someone is not always enough you have to make sure they do something about it !! now im starting college doing performing arts ive got proper friends who i trust and they dont back stab me , PLEASE IF YOUR BEING BULLIED OR KNOW OF BULLYING JUST DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT!!!!

I had a best mate in my second year in high school however my mum didnt appove of her being my friend and when my mum told me to stop hanging around with her i was really upset and had to tell my friend the bad news, after that she started to bully me and i thought it would never stop. But i told my mum and she reported it to my head of year, he delt with it and now all my problems are over, she stopped bulling me after a few weeks, now we dont even look at each other. STAND UP SPEAK OUT!
