As part of our ongoing commitment to ensuring our schools are safe places for our students, we have developed an online bullying reporting tool. This form is available to students and their parents/guardians to report a bullying incident either as victims, witnesses, or alleged perpetrators.
What is bullying?
Bullying is when someone repeatedly tries to hurt or humiliate another person on purpose (bullyingcanada.ca). Bullying can be physical (ex. hitting, kicking, shoving), verbal (ex. threats, name-calling), social (ex. gossiping, spreading rumours, exclusions), of virtual / cyber (ex. Using social media to threaten, embarrass, or cause hurt).
Please be aware that the online bullying reporting tool:
-
Is for non-emergency reporting only
-
Is not monitored 24 hours a day
-
Collects identifying/personal information
