Restorative Practice

Learning the process of having a restorative conversation.
Need to wait until the child is ready to have this conversation with you.
Questions are kept basic so that the children are thinking about the answers and are working to solve the problem.
They need to resolve the problem and work out how to solve this problem themselves.
  • Different mindsets. Have to approach the child in a way that responds to their mindset.
Restorative conversations do not have to take place straight away. The child may not be ready to talk or you don’t enough time to follow through with the conversation properly. These can happen later on in the day.

These conversations take time at first. But the children get to know the process and these become faster.
