We hear so mcuh about the small minority of young people who cause problems.  Today I was priviledged to present awards to young people at Budmouth College who we can all be proud of.

Budmouth's peer mentoring scheme is one of the best in the country and is doing great work in tackling bullying, increase the pupil voice in the school and building respect and confidence between and for pupils.

Leading the way have been Rachel, Emma and Amy who I was delighted to present Diana Awards to for their anti bullying work.  not only do they act as mentors at school and train new mentors, but they now lecture at conferences nationally about their work.
