Bringing the concept of Restorative Practice to schools
Daily schools and teachers are faced with problems that distract them from their primary goal of teaching. Those problems include,
- late to class
- disruptive behaviour
- failure to complete tasks (in class and home work)
- students failing to bring required materials to class
- rudeness, insolence and abusive language to teachers and others
- fighting
- bullying and harassment
- parental complaints following incidents involving their child
- problems in the staff room as a result of perceived inadequate management responses
