a balance

better

Letter of Excuse*

Email the teacher should there arise a situation at home which prevents the child from attending school

• Teach self-management by getting your child to be updated of

the matters during his/her absence from school from class buddy. *Not all letters of excuse are considered valid reasons.

RESTORATIVE PRACTICES

• Restorative Practices (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 uses an RP Script to help both parties understand and

reflect.

Relational Responsibility Relationship

THE RESTORATIVE PRACTICES CONTINUUM

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

THE RESTORATIVE PRACTICES CONTINUUM

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

• What happened?
• What were you thinking

when it happened? Identifies needs and responsibilities

• Who have been

• What have you thought

about since?

IS THERE NO PUNISHMENT?

• We believe in giving consequence as a Chance for

Change (CfC), not a tool to inflict pain and cause hurt.

• 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).

CONSEQUENCE

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 I
• started. What mattered was where I ended during my time in
• Junyuan. I never believed that I was at a disadvantage

compared to other students, especially starting out in the Normal Technical stream and struggling with my health …

• My time in Junyuan Sec taught me that as long as I put my

mind to it, I can accomplish anything. And even if when things did not go as planned, I learnt from the experience and kept moving forward. The biggest take away I have from my time studying in Junyuan is to not work hard, but to work smart. Learning may never end, and we have the ability to choose how much we learn.

ENGINEERING SUCCESS; WHILE HAVING FUN

• Having been in JYSS have taught me so much more than just studies.

Student Council teachers such as Mr Ryan Tan and Mrs Denise Tan…allowed me to develop myself as a student leader. There were many opportunities … to attend leadership workshops and to showcase my abilities...

• The teachers that we had in Junyuan Sec always cared about our
• wellbeing. I remember in Sec 3 when I first took Additional

Mathematics and struggled with it for the whole year. I was glad I did not give up on the subject as I eventually got a distinction in my O level exams.

• Leadership

workshops and camps instilled perseverance and determination in me. These qualities have allowed me to succeed …
