Mrs Julian Morgan, a teacher at St Gerard's said: "We have a strong preventative curriculum in St Gerard's which gives children the skills and knowledge to build safe, healthy and happy lives and to build safe and healthy relationships.

"Our children recognise when they need help and they know how to access it. Today is about children using their voice to express themselves and helping them to understand that collectively they have a huge voice.

"Today our young people are using their voice to tell the world that bullying is unacceptable."
