Anti Bullying Plan

Sydney Boys High School is committed to providing a safe learning environment for all students, while achieving our vision of a school community that contributes positively to the world. This is achieved through proactively educating the boys on appropriate behaviours, as well as undertaking early intervention if any issues arise to foster a culture where bullying is unacceptable.

We believe that all school stakeholders, particularly staff, students and parents, need to be aware of strategies to identify and respond to incidents of bullying. Students require the tools to combat bullying, including how to handle conflict themselves to de-escalate situations, and seeking adult support as needed.

Our school values of dedication, respect, integrity and compassion aim to prevent bullying behaviours, including online (or cyber) bullying by maintaining a commitment to providing a safe, inclusive and respectful learning community that promotes student wellbeing. Executive staff are committed to utilising evidence-based approaches and strategies that promote a positive and inclusive school community.
