SLIDE 8

We start with 2 Key Ideas about school

 School experience must be a positive

learning experience which grows students to become persons for others

 When students leave the school, the key

we give them must open as many doors as possible

slide-9
SLIDE 9

Reality Check for Everyone …

 We can’t give ALL the keys to ALL the

doors

 We can only try to make sure that the

keys we give lead them to a room which will allow them to earn the other keys

Practice of Independence with Responsibility

 Be prepared to learn and participate

actively

 Don’t wait to be told to do what you

should already know (your attire, punctuality, manners)

 Have a timetable for your

unstructured time – surround yourself with friends who have such timetables

slide-41
SLIDE 41

Restorative Practices (RP) (Student

Handbook pp 7-8)

 Building, maintaining and repairing

relationships

 Between teachers-students; students-

students; students-parents

 Allows the community to reflect on

their actions, make restitution and restore relationships

 Many platforms to build relationships –

Form T eacher Family Time, CCE Nuggets, Big Breakfast

School Rules & Regulations (Student Handbook pp 13 - 18)

 Code of Conduct  Support the community to:

  • Understand importance of good moral

behaviour

  • Develop Respect for self & others
  • Create a conducive learning

environment

 BUT – rules cannot be created for

every possible thing

OUR BELIEF

Schools are not buildings, curriculum, timetables and meetings. In these days and age, certainly not a child depository while adults work. Schools are relationships and interactions among people. (Johnson & Johnson, 1994)

slide-49
SLIDE 49

WHATWEVALUE

In Junyuan, we value RELATIONSHIPS. Relationships between teacher and student. Relationships between student and student. Relationships between students and the community. Relationships between school and the stakeholders. We trust that with good relationships established right and strong from the start, even when things go wrong, there is empathy, willingness and responsibility to rebuild the relationships. With positive and quality relationships, the child can grow to become a responsible and respectful young adult with a network of support to fall back on in times of failures and challenges.

slide-50
SLIDE 50

THE RELATIONSHIPS WE BUILD

 Teacher – Student Relationship

 A Significant Adult for Every Child  TSD; Classroom Circles/Relational Circles; Big Breakfast;

CCA etc.

 Student – Student Relationship

 A Significant Friend for Every Child  Classroom Circles/Relational Circles; CCA; Big Breakfast;

Level-wide school experiences etc.

 Teacher – Parent Relationship

 Dialogues; E-notifications; Restorative Conferences;

Parental Engagement Sessions

SLIDE 51

AN EXAMPLE OF AN EXPECTATION - ATTENDANCE & PUNCTUALITY FOR SCHOOL & LESSONS

 We cannot teach an empty chair.  Attendance in school is important for learning and engagement.

Regular attendance in school reflects the needs of the child being met (at home, in school and with friends).

 When a child is absent without a valid reason from school, a call is

made through the FT. Should a child be absent from school without valid reason and without successful communication for 3 days, a letter is hand-delivered to your residence and the school’s SDT (SL/YHs/HODSM) are informed.

 We seek the parents’ support in communicating with the FTs when

your child is unable to attend school. Should there be any difficulties for your child to attend school, feel comfortable to call or email the school for help. It is better to seek help than to avoid attending to the issue.

slide-52
SLIDE 52

AN EXAMPLE OF AN EXPECTATION - ATTENDANCE & PUNCTUALITY FOR SCHOOL & LESSONS

 To reiterate, we cannot teach an empty chair.  Punctuality for school and lessons reflects self-discipline and

respect for the institution, the teachers and others.

 When a child is late for school, the natural loss is his own time.

He misses lessons and when he walks into the class and the class has to pause for his readiness, he causes others to lose time.

 The logical consequences for the school, is then to get him to

‘make up’ for the time loss and put him through some uncomfortable “work” so that he will review his own actions and be on time in future.

slide-53
SLIDE 53

 So when your child is late (even for 1 time), he will have to

report for after-school community cleaning duty. The number

  • f times he is late, will be the number of times he reports

for cleaning. It is your child’s responsibility to alert you when he has to report for duty.

 However, should your child be persistently late, you will

receive a call from the FTs to discuss about the child’s

  • behaviour. We are willing to work together with you to try

help the child.

 Habits are usually harder to break if we want the child to do

it himself alone. He needs the adults to help him ‘rewire’ his routines and to role-model the way to achieve that.

SLIDE 54

SOME COMMON TRANSITIONAL STRESS

  • 1. New Friends vs Old (& gold) friendships
  • 2. New Environment vs Familiarity
  • 3. New (& Higher) Expectations from adults at

home

  • 4. Unstructured Time
slide-55
SLIDE 55

WHAT CAN BE DONE?

Parents Child Remember our responsibility to our children Remember your responsibility and accountability towards your parents Build trusting relationships with our children so that he/she can communicate their challenges to us Build the trust that your parents have in you by demonstrating responsibility and accountability Role-model the values, aptitudes and expectations for your child Respect the decisions and choices that your parents suggest. Their intentions are always for your good.

slide-56
SLIDE 56

RESTORATIVE PRACTICES APPROACH TO DISCIPLINARY ISSUES

 RP is a relational approach. It emphasizes the

wrongdoer’s responsibility to make restitutions for the behaviour and suggest ways to rebuild the relationship(s) with the victim(s).

 It is not focused on ‘an eye for an eye’ justice but

part of the Restorative Justice where we focus on ‘rebuilding harmed & damaged relationships’.

slide-57
SLIDE 57

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

slide-58
SLIDE 58

RESTORATIVE PRACTICES APPROACH TO DISCIPLINARY ISSUES

Face-to-Face Clarification with students involved to establish facts. Inform parents of child’s involvement. Case Resolution through Restorative Conferences with all involved parties. Inform parents

  • f case
  • utcome.

RP Script

  • What happened?
  • What were you thinking

when it happened? Identifies needs and responsibilities

  • Who have been affected?
  • What have you thought

about since?

Understanding impact on self and others, relationships are harmed

IS THERE NO PUNISHMENT?

 An

appropriate disciplinary consequence will be implemented once the SM team has concurred and

  • discussed. Please refer to the Student Handbook pg 17-

18 for more information.

 If a student has committed a serious offence (e.g

bullying, fighting, smoking etc), his/her conduct grade for the semester will be affected. With a “Poor” or “Fair” grade, the student is not eligible for any bursary awards

  • r school-based awards. His / Her discipline case will be

keyed into the School Offence Module (SOM).

slide-63
SLIDE 63

SOME FINAL WORDS FOR OUR NEW STUDENTS & PARENTS – A SAFE & CARING SCHOOL

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

Young people thrive when adults care about them on a

  • ne-to-one level, and when they have a sense of

belonging to a caring community.

 While the parents continue to be significant adults at

home, we are working towards building a strong relationship between your child and the teacher, the child and other children, as well as the child and the community.

 With that, he/she has someone to turn to when needed.

With that, he/she can feel safe, supported and valued in the community throughout the 4-5 years.
