At Wootton Primary School we are committed to providing a safe, caring, friendly environment for all pupils so that they can develop their full learning potential.

Bullying of any kind is unacceptable at our school. If it does occur, all pupils should be able to tell and know that incidents will be dealt with promptly and effectively.  All pupils should be taught respect for themselves and for each other so that incidents involving bullying are rare.
