What is Restorative Practice?
Restorative Practices are about working WITH people rather than doing things TO
or FOR them
RP is about offering high levels of support, whilst
challenging inappropriate behaviour and encouraging acceptance of responsibility

Restorative Practices Ireland• An all-Ireland network to promote RP as a key approach to
prevention and early intervention within the context of a life cycle approach;
• To develop the potential for RP to support inclusion within communities and across sectors;
• To identify potential for collaboration and joint developments;• To develop capacity, systems and infrastructures which support
the growth and evolution of RP, as well as build their sustainability;
• To progress and support locally based accreditation and training options;
• To offer those interested in the strategic development of RP a space for reflecting, crystallising, sharing and deepening understanding.

A range of sectors including education, justice and youth work, have found that the use of RP in their day-to-day business has improved working relationships and assisted in achieving better outcomes for the children and young people they work with;
Given the findings relating to improved productivity and reduced work-based conflict, the RP programme can very usefully inform the Government’s public service reform agenda.
