hair the colour of an Irish Setter. I wouldn't call that "ginger" - I 'd think of that as being a more yellowish shade of red.

Never understood the thing about red hair - I seem to remmeber growing up that red hair was if anything something admired, with a feeling that it might indicate a certain tough quality. Of course that was a boys only school.

I can't see how having a policy that specifically addresses a particular type of bullying implies that other kinds of bullying are trivial. If you have a policy about smoking you wouldn't expect it to include a section about drinking.
