Our Behaviour for Learning Policy:

At Retford Oaks, we all have a right to learn, succeed and achieve. No one has the right to prevent others from learning, succeeding and achieving.

To support learning all students are expected to:


  • Arrive on time for all lessons;

  • Bring their equipment to lessons and be in full uniform;

  • Not to eat, chew or drink on corridors and in classrooms;

  • Turn off and put away all music players and mobile phones on corridors and in classrooms;

  • Not to shout out and always treat people with respect;

  • Follow the rules on presentation of work;

  • Work to a standard which allows them to reach their targets, learn, succeed and achieve.

  • Any behaviour that interrupts or stops learning is not acceptable.

    “By following these rules we make our environment a better place"
