Two experienced educators and Restorative Practices experts discuss Restorative Practices. They delve into a practitioner discussion about the role of Restorative Practices in international school, exploring the relationship between RP and ‘consequences’ that can arise when implementing all things restorative.

The fireside chat was hosted by:
