Students, politicians and educators have gathered at a special summit to find a solution to bullying.
It began with current and former high school students telling their stories of being bullied.
And Premier Christy Clark told attendees the enviroment inside schools needs to shift away from putting up with bullies.
Clark says students need to feel safe and feel empowered to step in between a bully and the victim.
Education Minister Don McRae says new online reporting tools are now in place.
He says teachers are also undergoing specialized training.
The "Erase Bullying" summit will continue for the rest of the day.
