Anti-Bullying Ambassadors
Some of our students have been trained up to be Anti-Bullying Ambassadors via the Diana Award (The Diana Award - Anti-Bullying (diana-award.org.uk)). Their aim is to offer skills and confidence to lead on Anti-Bullying initiatives including mental health and wellbeing support to other students. The first thing they were taught was to look after their own mental health first. These students are learning about ways to promote mental health and support others. This group of students meets weekly during form time in the library as a drop-in service. They will also be delivering assemblies either narrated or live, on specific dates covering events such as Mental Health awareness week, Anti-bullying week, and online safety.
