Can a government campaign to tackle bullies who use the net and mobile phones to target students and teachers work? Teachers, pupils and parents will be given new guidance to help tackle cyber bullying as part of a government crackdown. Schools will receive advice on how to adapt anti-bullying policies to cover cyber bullying and how to have offensive material removed from websites. The initiative will be supported by peer mentoring schemes in which older students will be asked to help teachers tackle the problem. Can this government scheme work? Have you been affected by cyber bullying? Are you a teacher or a parent? Do you work in schools?

don't wait for the government action, as students, and as teachers, they can start their own campaigns to make society including the government to make realize what's happening and needing immediate attention so they will make their moves to protect people's interests.
