ANTI-BULLYING QUALITY MARK-UK

Securing Safety, Mental Health and Wellbeing for All

ABQM-UK is a national award that challenges schools and academies to demonstrate their effectiveness in anti-bullying

It endorses the belief that the safety, mental health and wellbeing of everyone are essential elements of learning, development and achievement.

School communities that gain the Bronze, Silver and Gold Awards can show that:

Children and young people come to school without the fear of being bullied

Staff members respond to all aspects of bullying behaviour with confidence

Parents are confident that they know who to approach about bullying and that it is dealt with efficiently and effectively.

Bullying is not accepted or tolerated
