DATE:    Tuesday, 29th April 2025
TIME:     7pm to 8pm
VENUE: Online via Zoom

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

In the sixth of their 12 part series Jenn and Joe explore all things related to
restorative facilitation. It is no small thing to step into conflict and facilitate or
mediate. Preparation and prior practice will go a long way to making a big
difference and increasing your chances of success. This webinar looks at what it
takes to be a good and fair facilitator and paves the way for the following two
webinars on facilitating circles and meetings. It also highlights the value of
co-facilitation when and where possible.

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.
