We speak to teachers, pupils and parents to find out how this Scandinavian country is managing to stamp out harassment in schools.

The Sluseholmen Skole in Copenhagen is one of many Danish schools where children are taught from an early age how to avoid bullying, which causes less damage here than elsewhere in Europe.

This enables parents to take part in decisions regarding school programmes, which plays a key role in preventing bullying, says Fatemeh.

"We have all age groups calling about bullying, but it seems to be a particular problem for, let's say 10 to 15-year-olds," says Børns Vilkår's CEO, Rasmus Kjeldahl.

"We try to get close to the students in many ways and to discuss the teaching, the pedagogical principles, what they do in the breaks, what they do in their spare time, and of course, how they interact on social media.
