Restorative Practices as it applies to the SNA
DATE: Tuesday, 19th November 2024
TIME: 7pm to 8pm
VENUE: Online via Zoom
Target Audience: Primary & Post Primary Special Needs Assistants and Early Years Educators
Restorative Practices is more than a program, more than an educational “tool” and more than an alternative to discipline. It’s a way of being. In that sense we need everyone in the school involved. SNAs are well placed to foster this philosophy and attitude and, in many cases, have been at the forefront of RP growth in schools. This webinar, with the aid of one such SNA, will spell out the opportunities for SNAs to develop their practice through RP, and potentially develop their schools as well.

Brid Kilmartin, SNA in St. Ailbes secondary school Tipperary Town, is a certified CDI RP trainer.
