Reporting or investigating bullying

Reporting bullying

Guidance from the DfE about reporting bullying:

DfE: Bullying at school

An integrated bullying and racist incident form is provided for schools to record and monitor bullying cases.

Investigating bullying

The emphasis in Ofsted is all about preventing incidents ever escalating to become bullying and pupils and parents clearly understanding and trusting the school's systems.  With these factors clearly in mind we have a recommended format for an investigation into an allegation of bullying.
