Bullying is repeated behaviour that is intended to hurt someone physically or emotionally. Bullying can be face to face or online. We ensure that we explore and teach our children the importance of kindness and respect. Through our Child Friendly Anti Bullying policy we ensure children are aware of what bullying is and how to get Help. Healthy relationships are explored through our RSE and PSHCE curriculum every term. We celebrate Anti Bullying Week each year and hold an assembly for parents which is always well attended.
