Anti-Bullying Ambassadors

Our school Anti-Bullying Ambassadors will be identifiable by the Anti-Bullying Badge they wear. You will also be able to find them on our school's Anti-Bullying notice board.

We have a drop-in in room 30 (next to the staff room) on Mondays at break time. If you want to speak to our trained ambassadors, we will be happy to try to help you.

We also have an email bullying@ferryhill.school

You can use this to report bullying, or if you see someone being bullied and want us to know about it. Only school email addresses can email this account.
