Welcome to this episode of Morning Boost! We're delving into the heart of conflict resolution with a focus on restorative practices. School leaders are encouraged to transform incidents of aggression into opportunities for understanding and learning. This episode centers around a playground altercation between two students, Liam and Noah, and explores how this situation can be approached compassionately and effectively. Listeners will learn about the step-by-step process of managing such incidents, from ensuring immediate safety and providing first aid to conducting individual and joint restorative conversations. The discussion highlights the importance of empathy, accountability, and open communication in resolving conflicts. Join us as we explore how school administrators and counselors can guide students to acknowledge their actions, understand the impact on others, and work towards repairing harm. This episode emphasizes collaborative solutions and the vital role of parents in supporting the restorative process, ensuring a holistic approach to conflict resolution in the school environment.
