The Panel with Tayyaba Khan and Phil O'Reilly (Part 2)

From The Panel, 4:05 pm on 10 November 2020

More than a third of eight-year-olds said they were bullied in the last year - with 12 percent saying they were physically bullied every week. That's according to the largest longitudinal study of child development in the country: 'Now We Are Eight: Life in Middle Childhood'. Children's Commissioner Judge Andrew Becroft joins The Panel to discuss his concerns and the harmful effects of bullying. Consultant Jo Cribb works with organisations to create diverse and inclusive workplaces and has just written an opinon piece for Stuff about the value of diversity - using the example of NZ's Cabinet. She tells The Panel about why a diverse team makes better decisions.
