Abusive Behaviour Policy
At Language Tuition Nottingham (LTN), we are committed to creating and maintaining a safe, respectful, and inclusive environment for everyone involved in our community. We encourage positive interactions among staff, students, and partners, and we do not tolerate any form of aggressive, dangerous, or inappropriate behaviour that may harm others, including their families.
We uphold values of mutual respect, diversity, and harmony, ensuring a positive space for learning and working.
All LTN staff, students, and partners are expected to refrain from abusive or unacceptable behaviour at all times.
Abusive behaviour refers to actions or language—whether written, spoken, or otherwise—that could make someone feel afraid, threatened, or harassed. This includes (but is not limited to):
• Threatening or aggressive emails, phone calls, or in-person comments
• Hostile or inappropriate social media posts or online communication
• Verbal abuse, insults, or intimidation
Unacceptable behaviour is any unreasonable conduct—regardless of stress, frustration, or anger—that causes significant distress or discomfort to others. This may include:
• Aggressive gestures or body language
• Disrespectful language or shouting
• Intimidation or harassment of any kind
We take all reports of abusive behaviour seriously and will respond in line with our disciplinary procedures. Ensuring the well-being of our community is a shared responsibility.
