Children and young people should know they
can talk to staff and (unless there's a child
protection or wellbeing issue), their privacy
will be respected.
If a racist bullying incident has occurred in
school, it is important to talk to the children
or young people involved before talking to
REPORTING parents or guardians.
INCIDENTS: Not doing so can worsen the sense of
CONFIDENTIALITY helplessness or lack of agency often
experienced by people who face bullying.
Young people's confidentiality should be
respected in the school.
Only share information with those who 'need
to know' and inform the child or young
person who that is.
