Time and the right conditions not only preserve but bring about something of beauty – Marie Clancy.
Anti-bullying training for teachers that is evidence based and backed by up to the minute research is vital if students are to have access to the best possible education in an educational environment that is bully free.
The NABC, National Anti-bullying Centre in Ireland is providing an anti-bullying programme for teachers working in Irish Post primary schools…read more here and please share…
“The FUSE programme is part of the Department of Education and Skills Wellbeing Framework and supported by the NABC, ISPCC and Dublin City University, and funded by Facebook. To run FUSE in your school and learn more about the programme please visit the FUSE website: https://antibullyingcentre.ie/fuse/ or please contact us on Tel: 01 884 2012.”
Hi... failte (Irish for welcome! and pronounced fall-thhha).
I'm a newbie to blogging, here just over a year, but what a great year it has been!
I've turned the corner to 50 recently and two things become more relevant...time and experiences!
Material possessions are less important! Using time wisely and truly experiencing each day holds a new significance for me!
Much love,
Marie x

Very informative post. Thank you Marie. It encourages us all to think about the importance of social emotional programming for young people. Something I played a big role in as a school psychologist in my early career years in Canada. Wonderful knowing it’s in Ireland too. Happy October! Andrea 😀
Thank you Andrea, for reading and responding. I’m glad you found it informative. It’s good to see Ireland being proactive at last, around the whole area of bullying. I’ve signed up for an online/blended programme on bullying prevention and intervention and l am looking forward to learning current Government guidelines and up to the minute thinking and research about bullying from the National Anti Bullying Centre. I’ll keep my readers posted. Happy October to you also! Xx
