Anti-Bullying Pledge

Follow this link to a short movie about bullying - you may be surprised by who you see and what you hear.

Anti-Bullying week: November 16th - 20th online questionnaire for parents (to be submitted by Nov 20th)

Current strategies in place to prevent bullying:
We:

listen to children’s concerns and act upon them immediately
empathise with them and show we understand their concerns
encourage children to work together, stressing the importance of teamwork
encourage responsibility for one another
use Circle Time to discuss concerns and appropriate/inappropriate behaviour
teach Personal and Social Aspects of Learning (PSHE) in each class every week
have the Sunflower Club to support PSHE
consider ourselves approachable to all children whether we teach them or not
try to ensure that children are not eating or playing alone at break/lunch times
have playground Buddies to support other children and help them learn how to play together
have Class Councils who discuss issues that come directly from the children
have Sports Leaders and Play Leaders to encourage/teach children how to play
have Friendship Stops so that children who are feeling unhappy have somewhere to go to seek help
are, as a staff of caring, professional adults, positive role models for the children
