Safeguarding & Reporting

Making sense of what’s happened

Not all situations are immediately clear.

You might be asking:

  • “Was this bullying or something more serious?”

  • “Am I overreacting?”

  • “Should I step in or wait?”

These questions are normal

Types of harm parents often face

Bullying - Repeated behaviour intended to hurt, isolate, or control.

Peer conflict - Disagreements or fallouts that may escalate if not addressed.

Physical harm or assault - Any situation where a child has been physically hurt.

Emotional or psychological harm - Exclusion, intimidation, or ongoing distress.

Online harm - Abuse, harassment, or pressure through digital platforms.


What matters most

You don’t need to label the situation perfectly.

What matters is:

  • Your child’s wellbeing

  • Whether the behaviour is ongoing

  • Whether your child feels safe

If something feels wrong, it’s worth taking seriously.
