Anti-Bullying

We believe that all bullying is unacceptable. Bullying is repeated or persistent and can be in the following forms:

Physical Bullying

  • Hitting/kicking/slapping

  • Taking belongings

  • Damaging personal property

  • Hiding property

  • Invading an individual’s personal space

Verbal Bullying

  • Name calling, due to an individual’s characteristics/appearance or because of their ethnic origin, disability, sexuality, religion, nationality, colour or accent.

  • The use of derogatory gender-related language

  • The use of derogatory comments about an individual’s family

Verbal bullying can be direct or indirect e.g. note passing, text messaging, emails etc.

Indirect Bullying

  • Spreading jokes/rumours

  • Exclusion from social groups

  • Abuse of power

  • Discrimination due to appearance, ethnic origin, disability, sexuality, religion, nationality, colour or accent

  • Cyberbullying through social network sites

  • Colluding with bullying or being a bystander whilst bullying is taking place
