Be strong inside – say “No!” Walk confidently away. Let a teacher know

11. Maintain a public record or statistics of incidents of bullying and retaliation;
Our ethos as a school aims to create an atmosphere where pupils who are being
bullied, or others who know about it, know that they will be listened to and believed,
and that action taken will be swift but sensitive to their concerns.
We must ensure that pupils feel safe to tell and understand that by not telling the
bully or bullies are protected and gives them message that they can continue, perhaps
bullying others too.
If you are being bullied, or you know that someone else is, please tell us straight
away, and it will be dealt with. Not telling means the victim will continue to suffer and
the bully will carry on, probably with others too. We all have a responsibility to make
sure that bullying is not allowed to continue in our school.
If you think you son/daughter may being bullied, or s/he tell you that s/he is,
please let us know straight away. Please reassure him/her that we will deal with it
sensitively but firmly. If your son/daughter tells us s/he is being bullied, or we discover
that s/he is bullying others, we will contact you, and will discuss together how the
situation can be improved.
