OUR BELIEF

Schools are not buildings, curriculum, timetables and meetings. In these days and age, they are certainly not a child depository while adults work.

Schools are relationships and interactions among people.

(Johnson & Johnson, 1994)

THE RESTORATIVE PRACTICES CONTINUUM

Page 78: What has been your greatest worry when you think about ...

SCENARIO: BEN CALLED ALAN NAMES. ALAN LOST HIS TEMPER AND

PUNCHED BEN IN THE FACE

Traditional Approach Restorative Approach

School rules are broken People and relationships are harmed

Focus: Establish guilt on Alan Focus: Identifies needs and

responsibilities

Accountability: Punishment,

e.g. suspension for Alan

Accountability: Understanding

impact and repairing harm

Victim, Ben is ignored. Offender, victim and school all have

roles in case resolution

Limited opportunity for

expressing remorse or making

amends

Opportunity given to make amends

and express remorse, work towards

positive outcomes and relationships

IS THERE NO PUNISHMENT?

• We believe in giving consequence as a Chance forChange (CfC), not a tool to inflict pain and cause hurt.

• If a student has committed a serious offence (e.gbullying, fighting, smoking etc), his/her conduct gradefor the semester will be affected. With a “Poor” or “Fair”grade, the student is not eligible for any bursary awardsor school-based awards. His / Her discipline case will bekeyed into the School Offence Module (SOM).

CONSEQUENCE

Page 85: What has been your greatest worry when you think about ...

A SAFE & CARING SCHOOL

• It’s relationships, not programmes that change children.

• YOU are a crew, not a passenger.

• Be that significant adult. Let loose but not let go.

NURTURING RESILIENCE AND ADAPTABILITY

• I didn’t have a good start, but it did not matter where Istarted. What mattered was where I ended during my time inJunyuan. I never believed that I was at a disadvantagecompared to other students, especially starting out in theNormal Technical stream and struggling with my health …

• My time in Junyuan Sec taught me that as long as I put mymind to it, I can accomplish anything. And even if when thingsdid not go as planned, I learnt from the experience and keptmoving forward. The biggest take away I have from my timestudying in Junyuan is to not work hard, but to work smart.Learning may never end, and we have the ability to choosehow much we learn.
