The safety session aimed to empower students with an understanding of the school's code of conduct, equip them with strategies to prevent bullying or any sort of inappropriate behaviour, and encourage active participation in creating a safe and inclusive school environment.

The primary objective of the session was to educate students about the consequences of inappropriate language, reinforce the importance of respecting boundaries, and emphasize the school's zero-tolerance policy against bullying and non negotiable behaviours. Emphasis was placed on the significance of avoiding labels and instead fostering empathy and understanding within the school community. During the session, students actively participated in analyzing a range of case studies aimed at providing hands-on experience in addressing various issues. These scenarios spanned from instances of inappropriate language to incidents of bullying, and also covered behaviour within the school setting. The objective was to stimulate conversations and collaborative brainstorming sessions to develop effective solutions and strategies.This dynamic approach encouraged active participation, mutual respect, empathy towards one another and building resilience. The students generated ideas to nurture inclusivity and mutual respect among peers. They made presentations and even role plays to work towards fostering respect and empathy within the school. Discussions also centered around supporting classmates, being an upstander, reporting incidents and offering assistance to those in need.
