An app to anonymously face up to bullying

An app to anonymously face up to bullying

No parent wants to imagine their child being bullied, but it's happening all the time in schools across New Zealand.

Kids are being taught to be strong, suck it up and not to let it get to them but it can make the situation worse.

One Auckland school has come up with their own idea to tackle the problem and it's come from the students themselves.

Students at Howick College have developed an app which allows students to anonymously report bullying.

It's a serious problem where the responsibility needs to be shared and this app could be one way for everyone to play their part.

Story investigates the app which will make parents and teachers face up to the issues in their schools.
