answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 08/03/2019 answer text <p>Intolerance and bullying has no place in our society and no one should live in fear of bullying on the basis of their sexuality.</p><p> </p><p>As part of our commitments in the government’s Hate Crime Action Plan and Integrated Communities Action Plan, the department is taking forward a number of measures to help the sector prevent and tackle prejudice and bullying, and promote tolerance. This includes continuing to support schools in their requirement to promote our shared values of democracy, individual liberty, the rule of law and mutual respect and tolerance for those with different faiths and beliefs.</p><p> </p><p>All schools must have a behaviour policy that includes measures to prevent bullying, and all schools must comply with the requirements of the Equality Act. The department recently published the Respectful Schools Communities toolkit; a self-review and signposting tool to support schools to develop a whole-school approach which promotes respect and discipline. In addition to this, the department is providing over £2.8 million of funding, between September 2016 and March 2020, to 4 anti-bullying organisations to support schools to tackle bullying. This includes projects targeting bullying of particular groups, such as those who are victims of hate related bullying, along with a project to report bullying online.</p> answering member constituency Guildford answering member printed Anne Milton question first answered 08/03/2019 13:16:25 answering member 1523 label Biography information for Anne Milton
