Implement restorative practices that involve open dialogue between the affected parties, aiming to repair harm and rebuild relationships. This may include facilitated meetings where students discuss the impact of their actions and agree on how to move forward.
Provide students with opportunities to reflect on their behavior, through writing or one-on-one discussions with a teacher or counselor. Reflection can help them understand the effects of their actions and develop empathy. Students can complete the reflection sheet linked above and then discuss it with their teacher.
