What is the Norbridge Learning Code?

The Norbridge Learning Code shows children their obligations with regard to behaviour and rewards them when they demonstrate the school’s values. It encourages children to be the best they can be.

How Does It Work?

The Norbridge Learning Code makes it very clear what is expected in terms of learning behaviour. It offers incentives for children to demonstrate consistently high levels of good learning and rewards those children who are keen to help themselves and others. Norbridge Academy’s staff are the role models and the Norbridge Learning Code applies to them as well.

What happens if children don’t follow the Norbridge Learning Code?

When a child makes a mistake by not meeting an aspect of the Norbridge Learning Code, they will be given a verbal warning to remind them of their choices. If they continue to make the wrong choices, they will be given a consequence, in line with our school behaviour policy. Consequences are used to encourage pupils to think further about their behaviour. If behaviour persists, pupils will move through the consequence systems.

There are some behaviours that are unacceptable and will not be tolerated in school. These behaviours are:
