Bullying
Bullying is when a person or group deliberately intends to cause someone else to feel hurt, distressed, threatened or humiliated.
Bullying is not acceptable
- We want everyone at the Academy to feel safe and secure
- We believe no one should be bullied in any way
- Verbal abuse of another pupil can be bullying
- A physical attack on a pupil can be bullying
- We must all make sure bullies never win
If you, or someone you know, is being bullied:
TAKE ACTION
- Watching and doing nothing supports the bully
- Tell a member of staff or a member of your family immediately
You cannot deal with a bully by yourself
- Talk to a teacher, your parents or an adult you can trust
- Do not give in to demands for money, sweets or anything else
- Do not try to buy the bully off with sweets or other presents
TOGETHER, WE CAN AND WILL STOP BULLYING
