Why this guide exists

"What do I say to my child? What should I document? When do I contact the school? How do I help without making things worse?"

Optional R97 checkout addition
When the concern involves an adult in authority.
Teacher bullying can be harder to recognise and report because power, discipline and school processes are involved. This practical guide and printable workbook help parents distinguish strict but fair teaching from harmful conduct, document concerns, approach the school and understand escalation options.
It is optional, it is never pre-selected, and you only pay the extra R97 if you actively add it at checkout.
