ICYANTI-BULLYING POLICY

>L�KLÄUL�I\SS`PUN�HZ!

“any action that has the intention to cause physical or emotional harm and happens regularly”

Bullying includes:

� Kicking� Name calling� Making threats� Spreading rumours� Taking people’s things

� Leaving people out� Hitting� Racism� Nasty text messages � Cyber bullying

� All students have the best possible education regardless of age, race, gender, culture or sexuality.

� All members of the school will have the right to learn without any form of harassment including racial and sexual harassment.

Bullying hurts, frightens and upsets people and it doesn’t have to go on for a long time to do this.

We believe that any form of bullying is unacceptable and every effort will be made to prevent it occurring.

All allegations will be treated seriously and acted upon until everyone is happy that the bullying has stopped.

The school will work closely with students, parents and teachers to raise awareness of bullying and to help eradicate the problems. PSHCE and pastoral lessons will include work on anti-bullying. The school will offer training, resources and all incidences will be communicated effectively with all involved.

REMEMBER: WE CAN’T DO ANYTHING UNLESS WE KNOW ABOUT IT

If you have any concerns report it directly to your Form Tutor, Senior Support Co-ordinator or Head of Year

Peer Mentors - [email protected]

EQUALITY POLICY

This means:

� The whole culture and beliefs of every student will be respected and valued.

� Unacceptable behaviour such as racial abuse and name-calling will not be tolerated.

� Racial abuse and other similar acts can affect everyone. The victims of such acts will have the full support of the school; the initiator will be dealt with appropriately.

ES Connectives are words which can be used to link or ‘connect’ sentences,

ideas and sometimes whole paragraphs together. They can also be used to introduce quotations or add an example. This is useful when writing an essay or an argument in which you need to provide examples or evidence to support your ideas.
