Ready to Learn

Ready to Learn (RTL) is a zero-tolerance behaviour policy template used in some British secondary schools. Under RTL, students receive a warning for any minor infraction; on committing a second minor infraction, they are sent to an "isolation" room for five lessons (looping around to the next day if necessary) and a one-hour detention after school. This is described as an "extremely simple, binary system".

Ready to Learn was developed by Henbury School in Bristol in 2016. It has since been adopted by many other academies nationally. Some schools have implemented RTL under alternative names, making it challenging to estimate the extent of its usage.
