Restorative Interventions in Schools
A “Restorative Solution” is a non-adversarial approach to conflict resolution where the person who has done something wrong in a given situation becomes accountable to those s/he has harmed. This person is then given the opportunity to “make up” for their inappropriate behaviour through agreement and reparation. An intervention can involve a formal conference, or it can be a simple conversation on a corridor or playground. Restorative Interventions work with all ages of young people, and the techniques can be used in parental meetings, can prevent exclusions and challenge poor behaviour. Our feedback tells us that when problems between young people are addressed in this way, those problems rarely reoccur.

‘Interesting. A different approach. Another ‘weapon’ in the armoury. Will try to use.’
‘Made me think how I can approach confrontations differently. Useful, reminded me where my focus should be and that things will be difficult at times, but that’s no excuse to stay in the comfort zone!’
‘Excellent day. Lots of ideas to take away and use on a daily basis. Thanks.’
‘Nice to do some work on behaviour without sanctions and restraints in mind’
This can be introduced in one day or as a workshop but is better offered over a series of sessions.
The course answers the questions:
This day’s training will enable participants to facilitate Short Restorative Conferences, and will suggest ways of working with young people and others that will help to repair broken relationships, and challenge some difficult behaviour. Including all those affected by an incident in its resolution is a powerful way of producing significant improvements in behaviour.
We will cover:
We will always provide two fully qualified facilitators. Typically one will be presenting while the other will be producing a graphic of the session, making notes of key quotes and topics. They will have varying backgrounds in educational psychology. For more on who we are and our associates, see our website.
