DATE:    Tuesday, 8th April 2025
TIME:     7pm to 8pm
VENUE: Online via Zoom

Target Audience: Primary & Post Primary Special Needs Assistants and Early Years Educators 

In the fifth of their 12 part series Jenn and Joe explore all things related to
restorative language. Language is one of the easiest and quickest things to
change when it comes to being more restorative. Language determines our
thinking. It is also a huge input into the culture of a school or organisation. This
webinar looks at the four skills of something called Nonviolent Communication, and the difference they can make to your consciousness and your communication.

Each session in the series offers valuable insights, tips, strategies and resources in a separate  aspect of RP, allowing you to navigate the various complexities with  confidence - one step at a time.
