“Everyone should feel valued. Everybody should be treated as equal.”
“Please keep more of a watchful eye. Educators need to be aware that there are problems after school and at lunchtime and that we would like them present during break and lunch time so we can feel safe and comfortable in our surroundings.”
“Don’t stereotype, label or jump to conclusions. Please don’t label complaining Learners as trouble makers. Don’t punish learners until you get to the bottom of the problem.”
“Let us know what you are doing about bullying. Give us feedback in newsletters and assemblies.”
