ABA - Anti-Bullying Ambassadors
Bullying is completely unacceptable and will not be tolerated at Orchard Primary School.
We have high expectations to prevent any form of bullying from our community by:
Providing a safe, secure and inclusive learning environment for all with a strong sense of community and good standards of behaviour.
Ensuring a friendly, supportive atmosphere in which all learners can develop their full potential.
Fostering the positive values, attitudes and skills that learners need to be confident, healthy, well-adjusted and responsible community members.
The ABA Team
Our new Y2 and Y6 Anti-Bullying Ambassadors have been specially trained to ensure that there are no issues of bullying or intimidating behaviour in school.
Pupils lead assemblies to discuss the importance of friendship and tolerance towards others and help KS1 and KS2 pupils to stay safe and happy during break and lunchtimes.
