What is Restorative Practices in Education?
Imagine a classroom where conflicts turn into heart-to-heart talks, not timeouts. Restorative practices swap punitive discipline for empathy and connection, rooted in traditions like indigenous talking circles. Think restorative circles where kids share stories, or conferences that heal after a big oops. Schools using these methods see suspensions drop by 44% and kids feel more engaged (Gregory et al., 2016). It’s like giving your school a big, cozy hug!
