Unfortunately, bullying happens in all secondary schools. At Montsaye Academy we are not naïve to think it does not take place in our school, but we do not accept in any instance.

All students at Montsaye Academy must be allowed to learn and move about in a happy, caring atmosphere that is free from bullying. Bullying of any form is not tolerated and will be challenged. Persistent bullying is one of the Principal’s ‘lines in the sand’ which pupils must not cross.

We have a zero-tolerance approach to bullying any reported incidents are taken very seriously. 

Mr Haig, Assistant Principal, leads on anti-bullying within the school. If you ever have concerns regarding how a situation has been dealt with by staff then please contact Mr Haig directly. Also, if you have any suggestions on how to improve our anti-bullying work within the school then please contact him on nhaig@montsaye.org 

We are a TELLING school.

This means that anyone who knows or suspects that bullying is taking place is encouraged to tell a member of staff and we promise it WILL be investigated. This applies to all students, staff, parents and any other person who may visit the Academy

Montsaye Sharp System

#thesharpsystem 

Our Sharp System is a portal where you can access helpful information and report and concerns or difficulties you have confidentially to our Pastoral Support Team.

We all work hard together at Montsaye Academy to help with any problems you may have inside or outside of the Academy. If you wish to contact us about something that is bothering you, then send a confidential message to the Pastoral Support Team via our https://montsaye.thesharpsystem.com/ . You don't have to leave your details if you don't want to - just leave the boxes on the Send Report page blank.

Please take the time to look through the pages and if you feel that you can help to keep the Academy a safe, friendly and fun place to be you can get in touch using the Send Report link.

This is a CONFIDENTIAL way to stop YOU or a FRIEND or SOMEONE you know from SUFFERING.

Telling School Post Boxes

Another way for students to tell us of any issues are the confidential 'Telling School' boxes which are positioned around the school. These are emptied regularly by the safeguarding team and any issues are dealt with accordingly.
