Bullying

The Cottesloe School have zero tolerance for bullying.  We can only help you once you report it, we appreciate it is not always so easy to do so, therefore we have several ways in which you can report it to us.  

• Via the ‘Share It’ button on the school website
• Via your child’s form tutor
• By emailing the school office office@cottesloe.bucks.sch.uk who can pass concerns on to the relevant member of staff
• Students are also able to report bullying to any member of staff
• Team Hub
• An Anti-Bullying Ambassador
• Via the library reporting box.

Anti-Bullying Ambassador is a scheme that is run by The Diana Award. The students will also be taking part in additional training with them next month. Students have also recently completed a United Against Bullying survey. This is run by the Anti-Bullying Alliance and gives a useful insight into student opinions about anti-bullying and wellbeing in the school. We will be using this information and working with the Anti-bullying Ambassadors to build on our existing anti-bullying strategies over the coming months.

The team is made up of thirteen students from Years 7 to 10, who have undergone in-school training covering areas such as how to support someone who is being bullied, how to report concerns and anti-bullying strategies.  Together we work to raise awareness and stop the issue of bullying around The Cottesloe School. Our aim is to make sure that all pupils feel safe and happy all the time.
