How can you implement restorative justice practices in your school district?

由人工智能和领英社区提供技术支持

Restorative justice is an approach to discipline that focuses on repairing harm, restoring relationships, and building community, rather than punishing offenders. It can help create a positive school climate, reduce suspensions and expulsions, and promote social and emotional learning. If you want to implement restorative justice practices in your school district, here are some steps you can take.

1 Assess your current situation

Before you start any change process, you need to understand where you are and where you want to go. Conduct a needs assessment to identify the strengths and challenges of your current discipline system, as well as the goals and expectations of your stakeholders. You can use surveys, interviews, focus groups, or data analysis to gather information from students, staff, parents, and community members. This will help you determine the readiness and capacity of your district to adopt restorative justice practices.

En Chile, utilizamos en término “medidas reparatorias”. Desde mi servicio, estimo indispensable que estas prácticas reparatorias estén expresadas en el PEI y en el Reglamento de Convivencia Escolar, de manera que sean conocidas y compartidas por toda la comunidad educativa, siendo relevante explicitar, en esos documentos o en otras instancias de socialización, el sentido de las normas de forma sencilla. La creación de instancias de diálogo y la participación de mediadores o conciliadores, es fundamental. La participación de los alumnos y apoderados en la gestión de las normas y protocolos de un establecimiento, a través de instancias ya institucionalizadas como el Consejo Escolar o el Comité de Buena Convivencia, también es indispensable.

Implementing restorative justice practice in our schools is a long all-inclusive, timely process. Implementing such a practice will involve. 1. Clarity of the course by all the teachers and learners in school. 2. A clear and supportive government policy stating the importance and value of restorative justice in school and society. 3. Ensure each teacher and school has adequate resources to implement the program. 4. Set clear and achievable objectives as regards restorative justice.

Me parece relevante destacar que la comunidad escolar seguirá siendo una comunidad por tanto se debe resguardar los espacios de protección y respeto posterior a la etapa de mediacion para lograr un proceso de justicia restaurativa.

The first question to ask is: what practices are we currently using in our school or district? What is working? What is not working? By developing a strong baseline, you'll have a better idea of where to go next. During the assessment process, it's critical to gather input from key stakeholders (especially the educators who will be carrying out the work day-to-day). Restorative justice practices only work when done with fidelity, so teacher buy-in and belief in the system is paramount.

2 Develop a vision and a plan

Based on your needs assessment, you can develop a vision and a plan for implementing restorative justice practices in your district. You should involve a diverse and representative team of stakeholders in this process, and ensure that your vision and plan align with your district's mission, values, and policies. Your plan should include clear objectives, strategies, timelines, roles, responsibilities, resources, and indicators of success. You should also communicate your vision and plan to the whole district and solicit feedback and support.

3 Provide training and support

Implementing restorative justice practices requires a shift in mindset and skills for everyone involved. You need to provide ongoing training and support for your staff, students, parents, and community partners to help them understand and apply the principles and practices of restorative justice. You can use a variety of methods, such as workshops, coaching, mentoring, peer learning, or online resources, to deliver training and support. You should also monitor and evaluate the effectiveness and impact of your training and support activities.

In my experience, it is crucial for teachers, students, and parents to all be knowledgeable about restorative justice practices PRIOR to rollout. This training should include specific examples of what it will look like in practice so that everyone knows what to expect. In my experience, challenges arise when there isn't a clear "if x happens, then y is the response."

A justi?a restaurativa baseia-se em princípios fundamentais, como o diálogo aberto e honesto, o respeito mútuo, a participa??o ativa das partes envolvidas e o reconhecimento dos danos causados. Portanto, há a necessidade de prepara??o para estar à frente dos trabalhos e treinamento e atualiza??es contínuos para que haja resultado efetivo junto aos alunos, pais, parceiros e comunidade.

There should be a series of professional development workshops for teachers, all staff and parents on restorative justice principles and techniques, including how to facilitate circles, conduct restorative conferences, and build relationships with students. It is important all stakeholders are involved. Children should also be included in this. Including children in discussions about restorative justice is crucial for fostering a sense of ownership, understanding, and engagement with these practices.

4 Establish restorative justice structures and processes

To implement restorative justice practices in your district, you need to establish structures and processes that facilitate and sustain them. For example, you can create a restorative justice coordinator or team to oversee and coordinate the implementation. You can also establish restorative justice circles or conferences to address conflicts, incidents, or issues that arise in your district. You can also integrate restorative justice practices into your curriculum, instruction, assessment, and extracurricular activities.

5 Build a restorative justice culture and community

Implementing restorative justice practices is not a one-time event, but a continuous journey. You need to build a restorative justice culture and community that values, respects, and supports each other. You can do this by fostering positive relationships, promoting dialogue and collaboration, celebrating diversity and inclusion, recognizing achievements and contributions, and providing opportunities for feedback and improvement. You can also engage with external partners, such as local organizations, agencies, or media, to share your stories and learn from others.

A justi?a restaurativa é uma abordagem alternativa ao sistema tradicional de justi?a criminal, focada na resolu??o de conflitos, na repara??o dos danos causados e na restaura??o das rela??es entre as partes envolvidas. Ao contrário do modelo punitivo, que se concentra na puni??o do infrator, a justi?a restaurativa busca promover a responsabiliza??o pessoal e a reconcilia??o. Ou seja, ao contrário de uma cultura que busca a puni??o, o objetivo da justi?a restaurativa é justamente restaurar a consciência reflexiva do indivíduo sobre o bem-estar coletivo promovendo a repara??o do dano e a auto responsabiliza??o pelo ocorrido e a n?o reincidência.

Building this culture and community takes time, and that should be made clear up front. Not only does it take time to implement and develop, but it takes time to carry out with fidelity. Staff should be prepared to support teachers and students as they work through issues using restorative justice-- this may mean that classroom coverage is needed during these moments. It may mean that additional support staff are needed. It may require a greater use of our esteemed school counselors. Without district buy in on the financial and time-related sides, restorative practices will not be effective and the intent will be lost to "they're just saying restorative justice so they look good."

6 Review and refine your practices

Implementing restorative justice practices is an ongoing learning process that requires constant reflection and adaptation. You need to review and refine your practices regularly to ensure that they are meeting your goals and expectations, as well as the needs and interests of your stakeholders. You can use data, evidence, and feedback to assess your progress and outcomes, identify strengths and areas for improvement, and make adjustments as needed. You can also celebrate your successes and challenges, and share your learning and best practices with others.

A harmoniza??o do ambiente escolar depende de uma boa gest?o da convivência por iniciativa dos próprios atores que trabalham na área educacional, bem como o desenvolvimento da consciência reflexiva sobre o sentimento de pertencimento que cada aluno deve ter em sua própria escola e assim, haverá respeito entre os companheiros escolares, professores, diretores e família.
