Schools that have adopted the principles of restorative justice in their approach to behaviour management report better relationships with young people, greater engagement in learning and a greater development of social and emotional competence among learners. Interest in this approach is growing and it's all about relationships. All those responsible for and affected by behaviour are involved in solving the problem. Working in conference with a teacher/facilitator, participants come to understand the harm done to people and relationships. Accepting that such harm creates obligations and liabilities, they then focus on repairing the damage and putting things right. If this approach is new to you, you'll be a convert in no time!
