Doon is in the second group of Scottish schools to be trained to develop the skills of pupils, parents, staff and community workers in reducing violent behaviours. So far, pupils, teachers, administrative and janitorial staff (10 in all) have had intensive training and 15 senior pupils have now joined the programme. A programme of training events for mentors has been prepared for delivery over the next 7 months.
The first of these trainings, for school staff and others, will take place on Thursday 7 March. This will be delivered by the MVP group which consists of pupils and staff of Doon Academy and staff members from Community Learning and Development, Barnardos, the Police, Women’s Aid, Education Scotland and other bodies. Footballers from Ayr United have expressed their support in raising awareness of the programme with its target audience.
