Anti-Bullying
What is bullying?
The Anti-Bullying Alliance defines bullying as 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. It can happen face-to-face or online. You can find out more at www.anti-bullyingalliance.org.uk.
At Langar Church of England Primary School we are United Against Bullying and take any form of bullying very seriously. We deal with the issues of bullying in many different ways including, as part of our RSHE curriculum, our assemblies/ collective worships and through the Anti-bullying and internet safety days that occur during the year. The school has a robust Anti-Bullying Policy and implements it consistently across the school.
Our definition of bullying is taken from the Anti-Bullying Alliance:
"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. It can happen face to face or through cyberspace."
