This year Currie High school is taking part in the ENABLE (European Network against Bullying in Learning and Leisure Environments) project. ENABLE is a two year anti-bullying project, taking place in five countries (Belgium, Croatia, Denmark, Greece and the UK).
The project aims to reduce bullying; empower and inform young people; enhance relationships between students, teachers and parents; and promote a more positive climate in schools where students feel safe.
During our senior induction day all S6 pupils were trained to act as peer supporters and will be engaged in further opportunities throughout the year which aim to enhance and support the school’s stance on bullying related issues. Peer Supporters will do this by:
- Running campaigns and activities which help to prevent bullying, encourage positive behaviour and support vulnerable students.
- Reviewing policies and procedures related to bullying and behaviour, making sure they are student friendly, read and used by the whole school community.
- Promoting a supportive culture in school, where students treat each other with kindness and respect.
- Implementing a set of lessons which encourage students to reflect on their behaviour and increase their social and emotional skills.
