FREE Anti-Bullying Week 2026 resources

Jigsaw Education Group have developed a collection of free Anti-Bullying Week 2026 resources to support the Anti-Bullying Alliance’s ‘Break the Silence’ theme.

Our resources help schools create safe, supportive environments where every child feels able to speak up, seek help and support others when they experience or witness bullying.

FREE primary resources | Ages 3–11

Our FREE Primary Anti-Bullying Week resource pack provides schools with everything they need to introduce and explore the ‘Break the Silence’ theme with children aged 3–11. 

The resources are designed to support a whole-school approach, beginning with a shared whole-school assembly and followed by age-appropriate classroom activities for EYFS/KS1, Lower KS2 and Upper KS2. Activities encourage children to recognise bullying, understand the importance of speaking up, identify trusted adults and explore safe, practical ways to help themselves and others. 

Our primary resource pack includes: 

  • whole-school assembly to launch the ‘Break the Silence’ theme. 
  • Age-appropriate classroom follow-up activities for EYFS/KS1, Lower KS2 and Upper KS2, including: 
  • STAR Framework – a simple, memorable approach to help children know what they can do if they experience or witness bullying. 
  • Odd Socks activity – celebrating what makes us unique and reinforcing that difference is something to value. 
  • Helping Hand – supporting children to identify the trusted adults they can talk to when something doesn’t feel right. 
  • Discussion and role-play scenarios – age-appropriate situations that help children explore what bullying can look like and practise ways to respond and speak up.

FREE secondary resources | Ages 11–16

Our FREE Secondary Anti-Bullying Week resource pack provides schools with resources to introduce and explore the ‘Break the Silence’ theme with young people aged 11–16. 

The resources are designed to support a whole-school approach, beginning with a shared whole-school assembly, with optional form/tutor-time activities for further discussion, reflection and practice. Activities encourage young people to recognise different forms of bullying, consider the role of bystanders and explore safe, practical ways they can respond when they see or know that bullying is happening. 

Our secondary resource pack includes: 

  • A whole-school assembly to launch the ‘Break the Silence’ theme.  
  • Optional form/tutor-time activities, including:  
    • Practise the Five Directions – applying the framework to a range of online and offline scenarios.  
    • Online Scenario Decision – exploring different choices and considering the risks and consequences of each response.  
    • Rank Your Ds – reflecting on which of the Five Directions pupils might feel most comfortable using and why.  
    • Write It, Then Solve It Extension Task – creating and solving a bullying scenario using one of the Five Directions.
  • A Five Directions information poster – a simple visual reminder of the different ways pupils can take action and break the silence.
