Abstract

Bullying among students at school has already become a rampant phenomenon and a wicked issue that haunts worldwide educational leaders. This article thoroughly analyzes the development of a bullying prevention program and its stakeholders involved in Australian education system. This program, initiated by Safe School Coalitions Australia (SSCA), aims to provide practical strategies to establish a safe and inclusive school environment where the diversity of each student’s sexual orientation, gender identity and intersex status could be recognized and respected. Some empirically proven solutions are also suggested based on the concept of ‘Inclusive Leadership’.
