Anti-Bullying
At Oasis Academy John Williams bullying is taken seriously. All students have the right to feel safe and respected at the Academy.
We will not tolerate bullying or harassment of any kind, this includes bullying behaviour within the Academy, Online, or during off-site activities.
We accept and celebrate all differences as the diversity of our community is what gives us such strength.
Every member of the Academy community has a responsibility to report bullying.
How to Report Bullying at OAJW
We encourage students to speak up if they see or experience bullying. Together, we can make OAJW a place where everyone feels safe to learn and grow.
You can report in the following ways
