Anti-Bullying For Parents
At Thrybergh, bullying is unacceptable and is not tolerated by students, staff, or the wider community. If a student demonstrate any behaviour that we consider bullying:
- We will involve parents/carers
- We will look to modify the behaviour in a supportive environment
- We may put in place serious consequences including suspension from school
If a student is being bullied we will support them by:
- Self-esteem support through Non-Teaching Heads of Year
- Repairing relationships with people
- Mindfulness support through the Student Support Team
- Regular check-ins by the support team
If you have any concerns regarding bullying and your child please in the first instance contact their appropriate Non-Teaching Assistant Head of Year or Head of Key Stage who will address any concerns and work towards a positive resolution to any issues that may have occurred:
