Bullying, Racism and Homophobia

In order to reduce bullying and discrimination we will:

• continue to develop and support anti-bullying work with schools to ensure that accreditation is influencing practice and stronger links to the National Healthy schools status
• provide training and activities linked to specific issues such as Learning Disability pilot programme, homophobia and sexualised bullying
• develop anti-bullying work and accreditation across community-based services
• strengthen our approach to cyber-bullying and digital safety
