'Cyber-bullying' crackdown launched

A Government crackdown on bullies who use the internet and mobile phones to target other children and teachers has been launched.

The new guidance is designed to help schools, pupils and parents tackle so-called "cyber-bullying".

A recent study by the Department for Children, Schools and Families (DCSF) showed that up to 34% of 12 to 15-year-olds had experienced some form of cyber-bullying.
