The Importance of Restorative Justice in Schools:
From time to time, everyone makes mistakes that can cause harm to themselves and those around them. When people hurt others or break the rules set out by their country, region, workplace, school, or other social environments, there are usually repercussions; this is how regulations are enforced and remain in place. People agree to follow rules as part of a broader social contract, and they also agree to accept consequences if they break those rules. One of the things that people have to decide is what the consequences ought to be for various infractions. Will the rule-breaker be punished? Will they have to take some action to atone for their mistake? Who will enforce these consequences? Who will be involved in the justice process?
