Year10 students have recently taken part in our annual Safety Carousel event, which was attended by representatives from Durham County Council and the Police Force.

Throughout the day-long event, which is organised by our Student Support Team, students attended various sessions focusing on topics such as online security, cyber-bullying, negative relationships, anti-social behaviour, drug and alcohol abuse, and community cohesion and diversity.

The event is designed to raise awareness about many of the issues which affect young people in today’s society, and arm them with the knowledge they need to protect themselves in potentially hazardous situations. They also find out how to access the many support services that are available should they need help.
