The other question I have is about - he may not have come across the programme as it has not gone out to a large number of schools - the FUSE anti-bullying programme. FUSE comes out to schools and engages with students and teachers. I was curious whether it had come to Hugh's school yet. There is another group called Soar which is for transition year students so next year he may get involved in it. It is a group that comes out to schools and engages with transition year students about well-being and their school environment. Has he heard of those programmes?
