Positive Relationships and Anti-Bullying Policy 2020

This year, one of the targets on our School Improvement Plan is to develop a Positive Relationships and Anti-Bullying Policy.  Several members of staff have met from schools in Castle Douglas High School Cluster to create a draft copy of what this might look like.  I now wish to share this with staff, parents and pupils across the partnership schools and to seek your feedback.

In particular, I would like to know what you think we should include to ensure effective partnerships between home and school.  I would also like to know if you would like further information on what is meant by ‘restorative approaches’.

Please see the link below and email the school office with your feedback at gw08officegelston@ea.dumgal.sch.uk .
