Has your child experienced bullying at school?
Monday marks the start of Anti-Bullying Week, an awareness raising week organised by the Anti-Bullying Alliance.
This year's theme is about promoting difference and equality in schools, and the alliances hopes to 'empower children to celebrate what makes them, and others, unique'.
We'd like to know your experiences and how your family has been affected by bullying.
James Robinson, from Mencap, a charity for people with learning disabilities and a member of the alliance, said: 'Anti-Bullying Week is important in bringing everyone in the sector together with a single strong message as part of a national concerted effort. Smaller charities are also able to benefit from the week, by using it to promote their own missions with coverage that may not have been achieved otherwise.'
