Courageous Advocacy
St Bede's Inter-Church School
Student Haigan deliberated as to whether to share with staff at school an incident of bullying that had been filmed and shared online, that he had seen on social media. Haigan was courageous enough to talk to his Headteacher, Mr Day about it, who was able to work with the Head from another school to stop the bullying. Haigan was awarded a Diocese of Ely Courageous Advocacy Award by Diocesan Deputy Director of Education, Sarah Conant, in recognition of his courage in reporting the incident.
