The school has responsibility to ensure that your child is safe at school and that he or she is protected from bullying. We are currently renewing our Anti Bullying Policy and need to know about your opinions and experiences. This will help us to address any concerns you might have. The questionaire will ask you what you think about how the school seeks to prevent bullying in school and specifically asks for comment on your parental experiences.
Information on the school anti-bullying policy can be obtained directly from the school.
At times the word bullying can be used to mean any sort of unpleasant actions. However, in completing this questionaire, we need you to use the same definition as shown below.
For the sake of this questionaire bullying refers to when a person or group of people do nasty or unkind things to someone on purpose, more than just once, which the victim finds difficult to stop. The government guidance states that bullying is: "Behaviour of an individual or group, usually repeated over time, that intentionally hurts another individual or group either physically or emotionally". Please answer the questions that follow and help Westborough in our quest to be bully free.
