Anti-Bullying

We are committed to providing a warm, caring and safe environment for all our children so that they can learn and play.

We are an anti–bullying school and bullying of any kind is unacceptable and will not be tolerated in our school. We take all incidents of bullying seriously. Bullying hurts. No-one deserves to be a victim of bullying. Everybody has the right to be treated with respect.

Our school defines bullying as “a persistent and deliberate act by individuals or groups who use their power to upset, scare or intimidate others”.

All our children are taught STOP - Several Times On Purpose as a working definition.

We acknowledge that bullying can happen.

We ask that anyone who is aware of, or has any concerns about bullying, informs us as soon as possible so that we can help solve the problem by dealing with the incident promptly and effectively.

In the first instance, if you have concerns about bullying in school, please speak to your child's class teacher to discuss your concerns with them. Should you feel that this is not appropriate, please contact the school office to speak to either Miss Smith (Headteacher) or Miss O'Brien (Deputy Headteacher).
