What was said
"my mom spoke to a dead teacher at the school I was at and they decided to ask me to stand up in assembly and announce to the school that I was being bullied and it had to stop. Can you imagine what that did?"
Jake Humphrey says that after his mother spoke to staff at his school about bullying, he was asked to stand up in assembly and tell the whole school he was being bullied and that it needed to stop. He suggests the approach worsened matters for him, and says he then spent breaktimes hiding between parked coaches to avoid other pupils before later moving to a different school.
