The KiVa programme focuses on preventing bullying by teaching students what bullying is and how to get help if bullying occurs. One of the ways that students can get support with bullying is to ask for a referral to the KiVa team.

The KiVa team is made up of teachers or school support staff. Together with the class teacher the KiVa team manage reported bullying cases. This involves using a research-based approach to have short discussions with the students involved, supporting children who have been bullied and giving children who displayed bullying behaviour, an opportunity to change. This year the KiVa team has the following members:

Miss Blockley (Year 1/2), Mr Horn (Year 3/4), Mrs Fuller (Year 5/6), Mrs Stinson (Year 7/8), Mrs Braithwaite & Mrs Martin.

If you suspect your child is being bullied or displaying bullying behaviour, please contact the school so that the matter can be responded to as soon as possible.
