Summary:

Restorative practice began as an innovative approach to disruptive, challenging and criminal behaviour. The approach is increasingly used to transform the culture of organisations, institutions and services. In this book, ten practitioners describe a restorative encounter as seen through the lens of their own theoretical model and provide a unique exemplar of how this restorative theory works in practice. The book's unique structure is modelled on a restorative practice known as Circle Time - comprising of a Check-in, a Main Activity, and a Check-out. This will be an invaluable resource for restorative practitioners and researchers working across sectors including education, social services, youth offending and local government. Book jacket.
