Conference programme

09:45 Building a culture of belonging - Cultivating Care and Connection across Devon schools - Mark Finnis, Director, Relational systems
We talk about inclusion. But do we design for it?
Restorative and Relational Practice is about elevating the culture of a school so people are pulled in, not pushed out, about fostering a greater sense of belonging and a sense of community.
It’s about encouraging a willingness to act in the right way for the right reasons.
So, how do you change the culture of a school? One classroom or room at a time. Where do you start? In the one you’re in now.
