Yes, it's back. And this time, it means global business!

Thanks to the 900,000+ people that took part last year, in The Big March 2010 was a fantastic success. Young people, parents, families, teachers, companies, Scout groups, Guide groups, Brownie packs, charities, politicians and celebrities all joined in and marched together across 63 parner websites to No. 10 Downing Street to ask for the Government to review anti-bullying policy in the UK.

Nick Clegg looks surprised at how heavy the Petition is!

The day after the march, a delegation of young CyberMentors personally delivered a hard copy of our Petition to Nick Clegg at the Office of the Deputy Prime Minister, and sat down to discuss policy issues with him for over an hour.

To date, we have secured the review of anti-bullying policy by the Coalition Government;

• we are in ongoing discussion with the DfE regarding new and improved ways of tackling bullying
• CyberMentors has been refunded for two years
• we have secured wins on teacher training (bullying and bullying behaviour is only one of four Ofsted inspection criteria)
• we are working with the DfE on the training for cross-community professionals
• we are working with the DfE on research and case studies
• developing reporting tools

We will be updating you shortly on developments in full.
