Restorative justice in schools

Have you ever wondered what really happens behind the scenes in UK schools when it comes to student discipline? There's a growing trend called 'restorative practices'—instead of punishing kids, teachers try to help them talk through their problems and make amends. Sounds nice, right? But some teachers say it's just a way for schools to avoid real consequences, and that it actually makes classrooms more chaotic. Others claim it helps kids learn empathy and responsibility. Who's telling the truth? Is this just another education fad, or is it the future of discipline? If you were a teacher or a parent, would you trust this approach with your own kids? Let's hear your thoughts—should schools be tough, or should they try to heal? #RestorativeJustice #SchoolDiscipline #EducationDebate #Parenting #UKSchools #Education
