Anti-Bullying Workshops for KS2:
Choose Respect
Conflicts and arguments are normal, but we can always choose to show respect, even when we disagree.
In our interactive workshops, students learn how they can use empathy, communication and teamwork to resolve conflicts. Through role-play, students will be up on their feet, taking part and putting new skills into practice.
Your students will also gain a firm understanding of what bullying is, and why it’s different from an argument or a disagreement. We then explore what bullying looks like, with specific reference to online bullying that can take place in group chats.

What people say…
‘I am really impressed that OpenView Education can accommodate every child in the school for a whole day’s fee; so often I have had to limit the opportunity to just a few year groups. It was really helpful that you produced a timetable for me based on our school routines. Your organisation is spot-on which really gave me peace of mind on the day.
Most importantly, though, was the high quality of the performance and workshops.’
‘The children have really learnt a lot as the workshops were really age appropriate. It was amazing to ask them about bullying and the ways to overcome it and hear their clear understanding of what to do.
From Reception to Year 6 the word UPSTANDER is being used! Thank you so much once again.’
‘Our facilitator was absolutely amazing! Extremely interactive and engaging with the pupils. The session was very ‘active’ with short bursts of activities going on throughout, as well as crucial information being shared with the students. So, it was not boring and the pupils were not talked at for the whole hour!
Our facilitator was also very confident, and her behaviour management was exceptional. She retained the pupil’s attention at all times and overall, it was an extremely successful session. I hope to work with your company again in the near future.‘
‘I have nothing but excellent things to say about our day with OpenView. The children are STILL buzzing about it and they all enjoyed the day – One even announced that it was the ‘Best show ever’. The teachers reported that the workshops were brilliant and were all incredibly impressed by your knowledge and skills as well as your ability to manage the behaviour of the children. I have already been recommending you to my friends in other schools.’
‘The show was pitched so well to all age groups – no easy task! All the children were so engaged, using our teacher as a character worked so well! I thought the lesson plans were great – the video was clear and it promoted good discussion.
In 20 plus years of teaching, this is the best Anti-Bullying / Theatre Visitor I can remember! Thank you!’
‘The facilitators had great knowledge and expertise, very up-to-date information, and were adaptable to our school needs. They had brilliant teaching strategies to engage children in listening/active learning/discussion.
Positive and warm with the children, managed children well.
It was all brilliant and staff, pupils and parents were all impressed and said how beneficial the sessions were – they really enjoyed the sessions and all learnt so much.
Thank you for your flexibility, positivity and expertise. It was an excellent day and I’m sure we’ll rebook the show and/or workshops again in the future.’
