A Solution Coach will meet with the target and assess the situation. With the target’s consent, the coach will form a Solution Team and contact the parent/guardian of the target.
A team of seven or eight students will meet to create solutions to end the bullying of the target. The team includes the bully, bully-followers, and positive leaders from the target’s peer group.
- First Meeting: Tell the team the name of the target, what behaviors are causing distress, and have students create solutions they can do to end the bullying
- Second Meeting: Ask team what actions they did to end the bullying and address the target’s reaction to their actions.
- Third Meeting: Target is invited to attends the meeting, tells team what the team did that was helpful and how the target feels now.
- Three Month Follow Up: Solution Coach® will check in with target to ensure bullying has ended.
