E-Safety

Technology enhances learning and CNS strives to ensure students get the most from it by encouraging responsible online behaviour. Let's have fun exploring the world of online research and learning, but at the same time, let's be mindful of e-safety.  We adhere to the principles of e-safety as defined by the Department of Education.

Operation Encompass

CNS is part of a jointly run operation between Norfolk County Council and Norfolk Police called Operation Encompass. Encompass has been set up to help schools provide support to children who have been present at incidents of domestic violence. 

Anti-Bullying

Bullying is not tolerated at CNS and we work hard to support the victims of bullying and to deal with those who bully others. We work closely with students and parents to identify the reasons behind bullying and to ensure that we all understand the significant impact that bullying can have on others.

At CNS we are proud to be working towards the United Against Bullying Award.
