Any form of bullying is never okay. We do not tolerate unacceptable behaviour, including all forms of bullying.
If you or someone you know has been affected by bullying then we encourage you to report it and seek support.
It can be difficult to understand what bullying is unless you’ve experienced or witnessed it.
