This six-minute video is part of a resource kit called entitled “Guard Against Bullying,” aimed at young people with low English literacy skills.

The video focuses on the nature of bullying, which can fall into one of four categories: verbal, social, physical, and cyber. It features scenes set in a large high school, with student actors taking on a variety of roles.

The voiceover narration uses clear language and some dialogue also appears in the form of subtitles on the screen. As well, the narrator speaks fairly slowly, making it easier to follow what’s being said.
