Teaching Council of Aotearoa New Zealand

In the inaugural episode of Teaching Today, we tackle the issue of physical restraint in an education setting. Are the guidelines helpful? Did the legislation get it right? How can whānau and teachers work together? A primary school principal, social worker, PPTA rep and early childhood educator share their views on these questions and much more.
