Restorative approaches emphasise both the importance of repairing the harm done by challenging and anti-social behavior, and the need to build or re-build connections between those involved.

This national conference on restorative approaches in educational settings brings together experienced school practitioners and those new to the field. There will be opportunities to hear from colleagues who have introduced, and are using, restorative approaches in primary, secondary and special schools and also in residential care settings.
