The Jed Foundation (JED)’s Post

This was an excellent webinar that I would highly recommend watching if you are in a school or district that is; struggling with the implementation of behavioral programs, wish to understand why restorative practices are important, or would like to gain insight into how to successfully implement programs through first-hand accounts (all supported by evidence). Additionally, I would like to highlight where the discussion turns to a lack of resources. Improper implementation is an important factor in not receiving results when using restorative practices in programs such as the PBIS (Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports). The lack of resources may vary by location, district, or state. How do we build access to resources for our public school system so they can facilitate and execute these methods properly for the betterment of society becomes the question.

To minimise any disruption, all education settings with confirmed RAAC will be supported by a dedicated caseworker to help them through any necessary changes. The Government has decided to close more than 100 education buildings that have been built using concrete prone to collapse. The impact of RAAC is varied – some settings may have very little RAAC present with limited disruption as a result. For example, this change in approach could lead to the temporary closure of one school space, like a single classroom. In most cases, children will be able to continue attending school as normal. #parents #schools #students #education #RAAC

We have updated our comment on the RAAC crisis to reflect the confirmed 27 additional schools with the material on site.
