About Aravon about Aravon  Our Policy on Bullying

At Aravon, we espouse the notion of promoting an environment free from bullying and acknowledge the common responsibility to act in preventing bullying/aggressive or anti-social behavior.

Strategies employed by the school:

  • Fostering a culture of "telling". This includes on-going work by class teachers and specialist teachers to highlight issues relating to bullying.
  • Implementation of the 'Stay Safe Programme'.
  • The use of "No Blame" approaches.
  • All instances of bullying are to be reported to the Principal who interviews all concerned. A written record of the interview is made by the Principal.
  • In cases where it is determined that bullying has occurred, a meeting is held with the parents of both parties, as appropriate. Actions to be taken are explained and parental support is enlisted.
  • Follow-up meetings with the Principal or an appointed teacher and the children involved may take place.
  • Changing areas and non-classroom activities (i.e. "wet breaks", moving from class to class) are recognised as periods of high risk and teachers are required to be vigilant.
  • From time to time professional speakers are invited to talk to staff and/or parents to give ideas on dealing with both the victim and the bully.
