Following all our work on anti-bullying week last term, our NJS Guardians of Safety have been working really hard to promote information about bullying.
We have created some videos explaining what bullying is, and showing some examples of things that could happen which either are or are NOT bullying.
NJS takes any accusations of bullying very seriously, but it is important that we know the difference between fall-outs, unkind behaviour, and bullying. Bullying is when someone is targeted repeatedly.
Whether it is classed as bullying or not, at NJS we follow our behaviour policy for victims and perpetrators and ensure that they are both supported in the necessary way. This usually means events are recorded on our school system, appropriate staff are made aware, parents/carers notified and sanctions are given where appropriate (such as loss of playtime).
Please watch and learn from our videos:
