UK school bans pupils from talking in corridors – 20 minute detention for those that are caught

School bans pupils from talking in corridors with those caught being given a 20 minute detention

Pupils have been banned from talking when walking to and from lessons by a secondary school.

Those caught talking face being punished with a 20-minute detention.

The silent corridors policy is being introduced at Ninestiles School, an academy in Birmingham, when children return from half term in November…….

The letter said: ‘All student movement including to and from assembly, at lesson changeover and towards communal areas at break and lunch will be carried out in silence. Students will leave school in silence following the conclusion of their last lesson.’

Despite the talking ban, the school says pupils will be able to ‘relax and socialise’ in allocated speaking areas……

A father of one pupil said: ‘Why does the school want to teach children to be mute zombies? In workplaces people chat and speak to each other, why not at school? It’s a place of learning and exploring ideas, not a North Korean gulag or a monastery.’
