The countdown is on! There are only 10 weeks to go until Anti-Bullying Week 2026, taking place from Monday 16 to Friday 20 November. Our theme this year is Break the Silence.
We're delighted to be providing you with a range of FREE resources to help your school or setting raise awareness, start important conversations, and break the silence around bullying. Read on for more details.
- School & Other Youth Settings Packs: Our resources for primary and secondary schools include lesson plans, films, cross-curricular ideas, and assembly plans. These school packs provide everything you need to take part in Anti-Bullying Week 2026 with primary and secondary school age young people.
- Odd Socks Day Packs: Odd Socks Day 2026 is taking place on Monday 16th November. We will be launching the packs for Odd Socks Day later this month alongside an amazing new song and video from Andy and the Odd Socks that’s currently in the making!
- Parents and Carers Pack: We’ve developed this pack in partnership with Coram Kidscape to provide a resource to support parents and carers to have conversations with their children about bullying.
- Purchase your official 2026 merchandise today: In addition to our resources, we have a fabulous new selection of merchandise available to purchase. New stock includes our collection of ‘Break the Silence’, fabric & silicone wristbands, stickers, and Anti-Bullying Alliance t-shirts. There's limited stock available, don't miss out!
- School Staff Award: Do you know a teacher or member of school staff who is a great anti-bullying ambassador? If so, let's celebrate them!
Pupils across England, Wales, and Northern Ireland can nominate teachers and school staff who have gone above and beyond the call of duty to prevent and respond to bullying and to raise awareness of bullying in school.
Every nominee will receive a certificate, whilst our winners will get their hands on some exciting prizes!
The deadline for nominations is Friday 25 September 2026, 5pm.
- Prepare for Anti-Bullying Week by joining our FREE online pre-events: Book your tickets for our Get Ready For Anti-Bullying Week 2026 Event (October 7th, 4-5pm) & Social Media Stakeholder Event (October 8th, 2-3pm).
- Sign up as a supporter: Finally you can pledge to Break the Silence about bullying and create kinder, more supportive environment where all children and young people belong.
While we provide these resources free of charge to schools across the country, your generous donations enable us to bring you Anti-Bullying Week and Odd Socks Day each year, so we ask you to consider making a donation so we can continue our work.
