Introducing Restorative Practices in Schools

(0)
Restorative Approaches are somewhat new to schools, especially the primary sector. However, data already shows that Restorative Approaches reduce incidents of disruptive behaviour, reduce incidents of verbal abuse, reduce incidents of theft, reduce incidents of physical assault and reduce exclusions. It has also been found to increase attendance. These resources are designed to support the behaviour systems currently in place within schools, aid the learning from these systems (for all parties) and repair any harm that has taken place (both physical and emotional harm). The resources cover initial introductions for all staff, specific training for Low-High level responses (including handouts and an introduction to pedagogical ideals) and all school INSETS to support. The resources are supported through a whole school plan and risk management documents. Using these resources I introduced restorative practices across six primary schools within the academy I work. I utilised the expertise already in place within my pastoral teams and school SENCOs to support the delivery of this across two academic terms (Sept-March).
