Re: Addressing Bullying in Schools Parent Information

20th January 2025

Dear Parent/Guardian,

The newly updated ‘Addressing bullying type behaviour’ policy is available to view on the school website using the link below.   The policy has been updated in line with the latest legislation and in collaboration with the ABSIT support team.

EA Addressing Bullying in Schools Implementation Team (ABSIT) have developed resources for use with children, young people and parents/carers. Also included is a parent and pupil guide to prevention and responding to bullying type behaviours. These are available on the school website which were uploaded during anti-bullying week in November. 

All pupils in Key Stage 2 have discussed the use of TRIP to help them understand the term ‘bullying type behaviour’ and all staff in Holy Family have completed the ABSIT training to continue to safeguard all pupils within our school community.
