​Connecting Families Secondary Years: Peer Relationships and Anti‑Bullying

​Parents and carers of secondary school‑aged children – join us for an online session exploring friendships, peer relationships, and bullying, in recognition of Anti‑Bullying Week (16–20 November).

​This year's Anti‑Bullying Week theme is "Break the Silence". It encourages children, young people, and adults across the UK to start conversations about bullying, speak up, listen and take action together.

​During this session, we'll discuss how to support young people to build healthy peer relationships, understand the qualities of a good friend, and recognise unhealthy friendships. We'll also explore RSBC's peer support opportunities available for young people with vision impairments.

​What we'll cover:

• ​Building healthy friendships and positive peer relationships

• ​Understanding what makes a good friend

• ​Recognising and responding to unhealthy friendships

• ​Encouraging young people to speak up and seek support

• ​Peer support groups and opportunities available for young people

​What to expect:

• ​Practical guidance to support your child's social wellbeing

• ​A supportive space to share experiences and learn from other families

• ​Information about peer support opportunities for young people

​This session will take place online, and we’ll send you the Zoom details once you’ve registered for the event.
