The school board officially confirmed they are launching an independent investigation into bullying at Harlington Upper School. Keep monitoring the school website for updates on the public hearings. We won this because we refused to stay silent.

Harlington Upper School seems to have a high problem with bullying. One of which is my daughter. Harlington Upper School seems to hide evidence from the childs families and governers. The support for children who are being bullied is NOT taken seriously. Also I have had doctors and police inform myself of visits or phone calls about the bullying being a concern with Harlington Upper School, which is causing families and children distress.
We as families need to make sure are children feel safe and the school is putting safeguarding and the well being of our children first.
Too many children are suffering and alot are in silence.
This petition is to get Harlington Upper School on a high alert investigation into the ammount of bulling in HUS and how it is being dealt with. Looking at the number of cases that have been ongoing that have been over looked.
Thank you for reading and please keep sharing.

The momentum behind this petition proves that families are done with being ignored by the school administration. We have the attention of the community now so text three friends and ask them to call their local representatives to demand this investigation. Use your social media accounts to post the link and keep the pressure on until the board agrees to meet with us.

I have a daughter in year 7 of middle school and Harlington Upper is a school I would be considering for her, the thought of bullying going on and not being dealt with and just pushed under the carpet horrifies me. How far does a form of bullying have to go before the school take it seriously?
My step-daughter is well into her second term and has not yet settled into a friendship group at HUS. It does make us as parents question, in what sort of social environment she spends her day? So I would welcome any amount of scrutiny on this.
Currently seeing the damage that is done buy bullying to my son's friend, this is on going situation with HUS, little to nothing being done with little support! I only hope my son doesn't experience it whilst he's there or god help everyone!!!
Bullied here myself leading to serious mental health complications, only about 3 years ago. School did very very little in means of support which made the consequences of my situation even greater. Made one of the toughest times of my life far tougher. Moved school in year 11 best decision I ever made.
It's funny, because the bullies are always "troubled children" and spend their entire school days sat in a "house office". If anything is brought to attention about them bullying it is immediately dismissed and "dealt with" by the house office teachers. (Pegasus!). seen this too many times at Harlington.
I worked there around 20 yrs ago, it was violent even then
many student have told me the there mentle health has deteriated after comming to this school

The school has an anti bullying policy but they do not follow it. Both my son's were victim to bullying at the school lucky my youngest is almost finished 6th form. Both boys were bullied, not at breaktimes in corridors or on the bus.. but in class with teacher present. The school is appalling
