| Summary: | Whitton School in Twickenham has recently introduced Restorative Justice as part of its behaviour management system. Leading the project is Brigid Medlam, a Restorative Justice worker and psychologist financed by the Children's Fund. Brigid works at Whitton School one day a week as a mediator between victim and aggressor. We follow Brigid during a typical day's work, offering help and more importantly a safe environment for pupils to talk through issues without risk. On this particular day, Eni and Natasha have come to see Brigid over a simmering dispute between some Year 8 girls. Brigid sees Restorative Justice as a means of helping pupils face responsibility and to address victims' feelings. This programme gives an insight into how Restorative Justice workers can have an impact on learning. "I'm trying to get them to work together so they're happier to be in school," explains Brigid. |
