Anti-bullying
In school we run a playground buddy scheme to watch over and help our younger children in KS1.
Playground buddies are children who are specially selected to go on duty at lunchtimes to do any or all of the following:
-
Organise games.
- Get out and put away games equipment
- Play with children who are lonely
- Help to keep an eye on younger children
- Support children who have fallen out with their friends or are simply feeling sad.
- Look out for bullying behaviour and alert adults.
- help children who have low-level conflicts to sort them out.
- prevent fights from happening by creating a peaceful atmosphere
- be a friendly person that other children can go to for help if they need it.
- be a help to lunchtime organisers.
