A positive attitude is taken towards discipline and pupils are encouraged to see the link between good behaviour and academic success, through our Behaving to Learn Policy, which includes a reward system. Naturally, poor behaviour will bring some sanctions. We also take a serious view of any incidents of bullying or intimidating behaviour. The School's Anti-bullying Policy is rigorous and simple. Bullying will not be tolerated.
At Riverside Academy, we pride ourselves on the caring and supportive relationships that exist at all levels within the community. In and out of the classroom, pupils are encouraged to show sense of reasonability and concern for standards and the quality of relationships.
