Anti-Bullying Ambassadors
At Brinsworth Academy, our Anti-Bullying Ambassadors work to promote a culture where students are encouraged to be upstanders, not bystanders, within the school community.
The goal of this initiative is to raise awareness about the potential harm of various situations, encouraging students to reflect on their own responsibilities and how they can support their peers. Through their efforts, students help create safe and healthy learning environments, equipped with the knowledge to both support and challenge others when necessary.
We work with students from all year groups, which helps foster a sense of community across the school. By collaborating with students at different stages of their education, we build strong connections that allow for peer support, shared learning, and the development of a collective responsibility to stand up against bullying.
As part of their work, students focus on important projects such as:
- Developing leadership skills
- Taking a proactive approach to difficult situations
- Understanding violence through a gendered perspective
- Recognizing the spectrum of violence
- Challenging victim-blaming
In addition, students are encouraged to challenge derogatory language used at the academy. The phrase “we do not accept that language here” is used by both students and staff to ensure a safe and welcoming environment for all.
If you would like to get involved with our Anti-Bullying work at the academy, please speak to a member of the ACT team.
