Auditing/Monitoring Bullying

Racist Incidents & Bullying School Survey

Hertfordshire asks all schools to record racist incidents and bullying cases and to feed back data to the Local Authority for monitoring.  This data helps the LA to build a picture of bullying.  Trends in geography, form or motivation provide insights that affect service delivery and build knowledge. 

Termly data collections (from January 2008) are made via SOLERO on The Grid.  Upon logging into SOLERO, you will see ‘Racist Incidents and Bullying data collection’ on the list of available menu items.  Whilst completing the form you are able to save or print it at any stage of completion. 

Any queries should be directed to:
email: karin.hutchinson@hertscc.gov.uk or
email: deborah.sheppard@hertscc.gov.uk

An integrated form for recording racist incidents or bullying cases is provided and ensures that the right information is collected. The 'Integrated Bullying and Racisim Incident Report Form' is available in the MECSS section:

For each incident please complete one form and return to the designated teacher for collation and monitoring.
