Restorative Thinking | Restorative and Relational Practice

The Restorative Thinking toolkits provide a planned and coherent curriculum opportunity, which will enhance a school’s own ethos and values through the development of SMSC across the whole school.
"Very interesting and relevant for dealing with issues we currently have in school, looking at new behaviour policy." (Head Teacher, Leicester)
Restorative practices and ways of thinking are now developing and growing in many primary schools across the UK. An increasing amount of evidence demonstrates a very positive impact on improving and sustaining positive behaviour, attendance, attainment and progress.
Peer Mediation and related approaches are having a profound impact on schools, families and most importantly on the development of pro-social skills and resilience in children.

"Relationships built through restorative practice are the oxygen people and communities need to survive and thrive..." (Dr Jim Longo, Washington and Jefferson College)
