You can change the default penalties with \setuplayout[setups=…], the default setting is \setuplayout[setups=*default] but you can change this to “setups=*strict”  which should help. It’s also possible to create your own penalties setup, e.g.

\startsetups mypenalties

  \widowpenalty = 9000
  \clubpenalty  = 9000

\stopsetups

\setuplayout[setups=mypenalties]

\starttext
…
\stoptext
