Restorative justice in schools
Description
If you want to sort out incidents of conflict, make sure the professionals don't take the conflict away from those involved! This is the message from those who are pioneering restorative justice approaches in schools. Sir Charles Pollard, former Chief Constable of Thames Valley Police, and Graham Robb, board member of the Youth Justice Board, share their experiences of the principles and practice of restorative justice. They discuss ways in which conflict can be resolved by bringing together the victims and the perpetrators of conflict and facilitating ways for them to both confront the conflict and reach an agreed resolution. Where these approaches have been used in schools, they have had a clear positive impact on behaviour. Mel Stanley, Deputy Head at Deptford Green School, talks about her experience of restorative justice; Kenny Frederick, Headteacher at George Green's School, discusses her school's various approaches to resolving conflict.
