Anti-Bullying

 

This academic year we have launched a new Anti Bullying Policy and created an Anti Bullying Charter that all students have signed up. We have participated in the Anti Bullying Alliances Anti Bullying Week 2022 and are currently working to achieve recognition for our work with the Anti Bullying Alliances accreditation system.

Bullying can occur at any stage in life, whether it is at school, home, work or socially. Nationally, bullying whether emotional, verbal or physical, affects a large percentage of pupils, either directly or as witnesses of distressing acts of aggression. Children who are worried about being bullied, or who see their friends bullied are likely to find it difficult to concentrate on their work, and their quality of learning is thus affected.

 We are committed to providing a caring, friendly and safe environment for all children and young people at Armthorpe Academy so that they can thrive and learn in a relaxed and secure atmosphere. We take a zero-tolerance approach to any kind of bullying. Should bullying occur, pupils should be able to tell someone and know that incidents will be dealt with promptly and effectively at school. This means that anyone who knows that bullying is happening is expected to tell a person in authority.

At Armthorpe Academy, bullying is:

The repetitive, intentional hurting of one person or group by another person or group, where the relationship involves an imbalance of power.’ Bullying can be physical, verbal or psychological.

We regularly encourage all our student to reach out and report any problems that they may have in school. If you wish to report from home and online, please use the SHARP system link on the homepage of the website.
