RP & AEN Course Takes Place Across 3 Phases

Mentor It

All Michelle's expertise is built into this self-paced course. We host regular community cafés where you are welcome to join and chat among a network of other RP participants, ask questions, share ideas which is what Restorative Practice is all about.

Resource It

You are never alone really when it comes to our RP & AEN self-paced course. We want to support you to succeed. To do this we offer a number of resources including useful journal prompts to support you to not only reflect on the video lessons in context but also give you practical classroom resources that enable immediate implementation.


Practise It

Throughout the RP & AEN Self-Paced course, we will encourage you to take your learnings into the classroom to practice the techniques that Michelle shares through her quests. By doing this, you'll be able to see in real life, the impact that restorative practice has on fostering positive relationships and removing those barriers for students with AEN.

What Our Participants Say...

quotesArtboard 1 copy 2

I have been passionate about working restoratively with the students in my care for many years now. Recently I was given the opportunity to complete the course on Restorative Practice and Additional Educational Needs. I was absolutely delighted as I now had the chance to explore theory, research, and practice in restorative approaches when working with students with additional educational needs. I loved the structure of the course, it is a self-paced certified course which offers 5 Lessons which explore meeting needs, removing barriers, and offering supports. As an SNA I found this course to be an excellent resource as it enables SNAs and teachers of students with AEN to support their students to access restorative practices and processes. I am really looking forward to modelling the ideas, skills and practices illustrated in the course in my school. This course has given me the confidence and knowledge to develop new, deeply inclusive ways of working restoratively that I feel will truly make a positive difference to the learning outcomes of the students in my care, the school environment and the wider community.
