Last month, our consultant with Real Schools, Jemma Rust, hosted an information session for parents and guardians about Real Schools and how this organisation is supporting our work at OLMC. Thank you to those who could join us on the night.
In her presentation, Jemma referenced one of the books that has been written by the founder of Real Schools, Adam Voight. In his book Restoring Teaching, Adam reflects on his experience of teaching and leading school communities as principal. This book also gives an insight into the principles that have guided his work in establishing Real Schools and what this model of restorative practices is about. Many of the examples do not only apply to a school setting, but also have relevance when building strong relationships with young people in other environments too.
