7.8.18 Further steps, open questions

	Duration: 30 -60 min., depending on time agreements
	Aim: Depending on the seriousness of the bullying case and the damage which has been caused, further steps might be necessary. Participants will get to know possible follow-up activities. The intention is to raise the participants´ awareness of a potentially fragile situation.
	Materials: Flipchart No. 22
	Instruction for implementation: Flipchart No. 22 The facilitators comment: Even after a successful intervention it is important to keep an eye on the affected student. How is he/she doing? Are things fine? Also, talk to the members of the support group about how they experience the class atmosphere and the position of the affected student. More activities might be needed, e.g. additional support for the affected student, social skills training in class, a buddy program (an older student is the mentor of a younger one) or an additional program for bullying protagonists. Also, a (cyber)bullying awareness raising training for the whole class sensitizes the students to the problem.After the discussion of potential further steps, the facilitators ask whether there are any open questions left concerning the procedure of the NBA and try to answer them. If the time frame is too tight, a follow-up meeting can be proposed, if manageable. But experiences from hundreds of workshops have shown that a one-day-training enables teachers to apply the approach without problems.

Evaluation procedure: At the end of the No Blame Approach workshop participants will be asked for a feedback, orally or in written form. This should be decided by the trainers. Advised aspects of the evaluation:

comprehension of the NBA

effectivity of the training

training methods

At the end of the workshop, the facilitators will thank the group for participating and encourage them to work with the NBA.

	Duration: 5 min
	Aim: Participants will get to know the set-up of the support group.
	Materials: Flipchart No. 15
	Instruction for implementation: The facilitators introduce the size and conditions (Flipchart No. 15) of the support group. The group consists of 6 – 8 students, who receive a written or personal invitation which should not include the name of the affected student. The meeting takes place outside the classroom in a separate room during regular classes to avoid resistance.
