At Yewstock School, we are committed to creating a culture of mutual respect where the bullying of adults, children or young people is not tolerated in any form. Our Anti-bullying policy, which sets out our approach in detail, can be found on this website. We also have leaflets aimed at pupils.
Links to anti-bullying websites are shown below. There are also links to useful videos, both information for parents.
