24TRA176 Restorative Practices and the role of the SNA

DATE: Monday, 4th March 2024
TIME: 7pm to 8pm
VENUE: Online via Zoom

Restorative Practices is more than a program, more than an educational “tool” and more than an alternative to discipline. It’s a way of being. In that sense we need everyone in the school involved. SNAs are well placed to foster this philosophy and attitude and, in many cases, have been at the forefront of RP growth in schools. This webinar, with the aid of one such SNA, will spell out the opportunities for SNAs to develop their practice through RP, and potentially develop their schools as well.
