Bullying 'Impacting' Grades

Nearly half of UK teenagers have been bullied before they turn 18 with many saying it's causing their school grades to drop.

The findings follow a national report into bullying which spoke to 3,600 students aged between 13 to 18.

Anti-bullying charity Ditch The Label says 56% of bullied pupils felt it was having an impact on their education.

Sixteen-year-old student Rebecca Parkin tells Newsbeat she's been physically and verbally bullied.
