Anti-Bullying Ambassadors

On Wednesday 28th September, ten of the anti-bullying ambassadors went to Queen’s College in London for Anti-bullying training. They learnt many things during the time they were there and interacted with many other schools. First, they learnt what bullying behaviour was: intended, repeated and negative. Next, they learnt what bullying can make you feel, represented by the three 'U's - upset, uncomfortable and unsafe. They went through different types of bullying: Verbal, Indirect and Physical or VIP. They also learnt how to spot signs of someone being bullied and how to help them. At the end of the day, they all came home with many ideas and campaigns on how to make Barking Abbey a better and safer place for all students.
