We are also recording a series of training podcasts and these will soon be available via our ‘self-guided learning’ page, alongside video and paper resources, so that you can learn about restorative and relational practice in your own time, at your own pace.

Restorative Thinking curriculum programmes, booklets and other resources are designed to be delivered as part of whole school restorative practice.

How can restorative practice help teachers and pupils to choose a respectful, considered approach to conflict resolution and anti-bullying? We wrote this resource for the Anti-Bullying Alliance as part of Anti-Bullying week in 2018.
“Say sorry you two. Right, off you go.”
How often do you, or those around you, step in to resolve disputes between pupils this way? It’s a quick, easy fix for school staff, especially when we have a number of other things that need our immediate attention, or we are rushing to deliver a lesson. So how well does this response respectfully resolve an incident and how likely is it that there will be a repeat incident following this kind of closure?
Restorative practice encompasses a suite of principles and skills that guide the way we act in all our dealings. When teachers model these principles and skills at school, pupils pick them up; when restorative practice becomes a whole school approach, pupils (and teachers) learn to reach a shared understanding and/or to respectfully disagree.
