RESTORATIVE PRACTICES IN SCHOOLS

We help schools create resilient, respectful and equitable educational communities, based on the principles of restorative justice that emphasize the importance of allowing every voice to be heard. This approach is key to building positive relationships and strong communities that can address conflict and repair harm when it occurs.
Using simple and effective restorative practices, we will address the specific needs of your school/classroom. We will help you learn to:

STRENGTHEN RELATIONSHIPS
  • Between, teachers, students, staff and parents
 
CREATE AN INCLUSIVE SCHOOL CULTURE
  • Where diversity is embraced and cultural differences understood
  • Based on the values of respect, accountability, and trust. 
 
PROVIDE SAFE LEARNING ENVIRONMENTS
  • See a decrease in misbehavior, bullying, vandalism and violence
  • Promote emotional and physical safety in the classroom and school
  • Increase academic engagement, performance and graduation rates
 
DEVELOP SOCIAL-EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE
  • Empower the whole school community to speak skillfully and be heard effectively.
 
IMPLEMENT POSITIVE DISCIPLINE
  • Reduce rates of detentions, expulsions, suspensions
  • Disrupt the school-to-prison pipeline
 
INCREASE MORALE
  • Improve student and teacher engagement and attendance

​We offer a wide range of trainings that are designed to meet the specific needs of your community with a focus on learning and developing the core skills of restorative principles and practice and its application in a school setting. For more in-depth information about our trainings click here.
