Anti-bullying

We believe that schools should be a safe place where pupils can thrive and therefore have measures in place to support this. One measure we have in place is our anti-bullying ambassadors in our Academy who can be identified by the badge they wear. Our Anti-Bullying Ambassadors work with, and are trained by, The Diana Award and are here to support students and help to ensure our Anti-Bullying Charter is adhered to. 

We have a 'Call it out' attitude here at Grace so please speak to a member of the Anti-Bullying Ambassador team or a member of staff if you have any questions or concerns in regard to bullying.
