Download the National Standard on addressing Bullying in Australian Schools. This document provides the framework for all school systems and schools to establish shared national expectations and actions and provide confidence that no matter where a student goes to school, bullying behaviours, including harmful antecedent behaviours (referred to as bullying and other harmful behaviours) will be appropriately addressed and the school workforce supported to take appropriate action.

The Anti-Bullying Rapid Review (the Review) was announced on 16 February 2025. The purpose of the Review was to examine what is working to prevent and respond to bullying in Australian schools and what needs strengthening, before reporting to Education Ministers. Consultation commenced in February and concluded at the end of August 2025.
