Joint Oireachtas Committee on Education and Skills
School Bullying and the Impact on Mental Health: Discussion (Resumed)
Ms Ann Piggott:
Some people are vulnerable and more likely to be targeted. Anyone can be bullied at any point for any particular reason. A person may be in the wrong place at the wrong time. A person may be jealous or maybe someone got 100% in a test. I do not believe we can narrow it to any one reason but we should keep talking about it and make people aware that it is happening. We need to highlight that people have to talk to others. That is where we have to go in future.
