We are proud of the nurturing environment that is promoted by children and adults at the school.  We are also proud to be a UNICEF’s Rights Respect School and have recently been accredited with our Bronze Award. I am also delighted that we have achieved our Silver Award from the Altogether School Anti-bullying Programme. This award recognises the work that we have all done to reduce bulling and improve our well being. https://anti-bullyingalliance.org.uk/

Every November, we participate in Anti-Bullying Week.   This year,  we participated in Odd Socks day.  We celebrated that we are all different and all equal. Please ask your child to complete the following Survey as part of the Anti-Bullying Alliance programme: https://www.surveymonkey.co.uk/r/FNCZ37P

Each class explored: –

• The definition of respect
• That bullying is a behaviour choice
• That we can respectfully disagree with each other i.e. we don’t have to be best friends or always agree with each other but we do have to respect each other
• That we all need to choose to respect each other both face to face and online

What can I do if my child or another child is being bullied?

• explain to them that the child has to be brave and tell someone and get it sorted out
• listen
• them to write down their worries in the worry box or monster (in library at school)
• tell them to speak to an adult at home. Click on the link for a toolkit Anti-Bullying Week 2021 – Parent Pack – FINAL
