Anti-Bullying Week 2023 is coordinated in England, Wales and Northern Ireland by the Anti-Bullying Alliance. This year it has the theme ‘Make A Noise About Bullying’ and will take place from Monday 13th to Friday 17th November.

At NJS, the children are all completing different tasks in class around the theme of bullying. We want to be a ‘bully buster’ at NJS! What is Bully Buster? Well, a bully buster at NJS is someone who takes action when bullying is happening; someone who helps those around them and someone who speaks up! All children have designed a ‘bully buster’ badge and had in depth discussions on what they included and why.

Alongside the tasks in class, the whole school attended an assembly where Wellbeing Mentors from BBS came along. The children from Burton Borough were fantastic and shared some key messages with the children. What bullying is? What to do if they are being bullied? And many more.

Here is the presentation that BBS delivered:
