Examples of cases of reconciliation service at school. School Reconciliation Service "Road to Peace"


Conciliatory meeting

Good afternoon

It may have been difficult for many to come here, so I thank all the meeting participants for their determination to participate in our conversation today.

We have gathered today about the situation that happened to you.

I would like to start by introducing the participants of today's meeting. This is (...), his parents (...), a social worker (...). I am the leader. My name is (...). My assistant (...).

Let me remind you that the main participants in our meeting are you. My task is not to find out guilt or defend any party, but to help you organize a dialogue and resolve the situation. I will remain neutral between the parties.

Our meeting is voluntary. This means that you came here of your own free will and have the right to leave if you consider it necessary.

In order for us to be able to communicate normally and resolve the situation, I propose introducing the following rules (let me remind you of them):

I will ask you not to interrupt the speaker, giving everyone the opportunity to speak to the end;

I will ask you not to insult each other so that everyone feels safe;

Participation in the meeting is voluntary, you have the right to leave it if for some reason you consider your further stay impossible;

The meeting will last as long as you deem necessary. Also, at your request, the meeting can be rescheduled or continued at another time;

During the meeting, each participant (including myself) can request a separate conversation in private;

I will ask everyone to maintain the confidentiality of the conversation (not to tell others about what happened at the program);

Do you agree with the proposed rules or would you like to make your own suggestions and any additions?

Do you have any questions for me or can we get started?

I will ask that mobile phones be turned off during the meeting.

So, I ask you to tell me what you think about this situation.
Progress of the conciliation meeting

At the first stage, the leader gives the victim the opportunity to tell what this situation (conflict or crime) has become for her. At the same time, he creates conditions in which both the victim and the offender feel safe. If the abuser understands the pain that he brought to the victim, he can find a way to respond to this pain.

The facilitator helps the meeting participants establish a constructive dialogue. When starting to speak out, the interlocutors, as a rule, turn to the presenter, since everyone has established contact with him at the preliminary meeting. Their statements towards the other side can be harsh and even offensive. The presenter gives them the correct form and passes them to the other party.

For example:

Party to the conflict:“I still won’t forgive this idiot!”

Mediator:“I remind you of the rules and ask you to refrain from insults. And did I understand correctly that you are very offended and maybe even angry?”

Party to the conflict:"Yes".

Mediator (addressing the other side):“Do you hear what feelings your interlocutor is experiencing and why? Do you want to answer something?

Gradually, the facilitator builds a dialogue between the parties, encouraging them to contact each other directly.

Leading:“If you can, tell it to each other directly.” “It will be better if you turn to each other.”

The presenter, figuratively speaking, removes all barriers to dialogue between the parties. Typical barriers include misunderstanding, mistrust, strong emotions, prejudice, etc. If the parties stopped attacking each other, began to communicate and together look for ways out of the situation, then the leader does not interfere in their communication. If suddenly tension and negative emotions again begin to interfere with the process, the facilitator helps the parties return to dialogue and again gives them the initiative.

If the statements are too rude, the presenter can remind you of the rules “do not interrupt”, “do not insult”. If one of the participants continues to react too harshly, you can invite him to go into the next room with one of the facilitators and once again explain the meaning of the conciliation meeting (as in the preliminary meeting, but more concisely).

If any of the meeting tasks are not resolved, you can return to it later. And vice versa, if there is a misunderstanding, then it is better to once again remind the important things.

The facilitator supports the meeting participants’ story about themselves so that they gradually emerge from their conflicting roles (offender and victim) and their communication becomes more humane and interested. At the same time, through his neutral (that is, equally interested) position, the facilitator helps the parties accept responsibility for resolving the situation and believe that they themselves can find a solution. But, while maintaining neutrality in relation to the parties, the presenter does not remain indifferent to the very fact of causing harm. If such a fact is established, then the harm must be eliminated through the efforts of the offender himself.

Typically, three issues are discussed at a conciliation meeting:

The attitude of the parties to the situation and its consequences for them;

Ways to solve this situation;

How to make sure something like this doesn't happen again.

The result of restorative actions is usually visible in the changed posture of the participants. They begin to talk to each other and discuss a way out of a painful situation together, rather than confronting each other, as happens at the beginning of a meeting.
Signing the contract

At the end of the program, the parties enter into an agreement (oral or written). Drawing up an agreement is another opportunity to summarize the conversation and consolidate mutual agreements. The facilitator checks the contract for the reality of execution, that is, finds out, for example, where and by what date the money for damages will come from (this depends on the teenager or his parents, whether the teenager is going to commit a new offense for this). If the agreement is real and suits both parties, then the leader does not evaluate its “correctness.”

A written conciliation agreement may be necessary to present the results of the meeting, for example, to the teachers' council, where it can serve as the basis for mitigating the consequences for the offender.

If during the program the teenager understands that the cause of the offense was his certain qualities, then the facilitator together with the teenager can draw up a plan to change these qualities (rehabilitation program). For example, if a person himself admits that the cause of the offense was his inability to control aggression or he is very dependent on the opinion of the group, then you can suggest contacting a specialist (a psychologist who conducts training).

In addition, the other side of the conflict may also need help. For example, parents are often interested in how their children can stop being “black sheep” and how children should behave so that they are not bullied by their classmates. Sometimes the offender is the only person who can answer this question.

Slide 2

School is the whole world

There are still no conflicts at school...

Slide 3

Conflict is not always a clearly negative situation.

This is a confrontation between different positions, which is a completely natural process that constantly arises in everyone’s life. What is important is exactly how the conflict is resolved and what its consequences are.

Slide 4

Basic ways of working with conflicts in a modern school

  • Administrative decision.
  • Referring the offender to a psychologist for re-education.
  • Conflict resolution by parents of adolescents.
  • Teenage shooters.
  • A group of high school students within the framework of school self-government, to which responsibility for resolving conflicts is delegated
  • Slide 5

    All these methods do not provide an opportunity for the teenager himself to resolve the current situation and take responsibility for what happened.

    Obviously, the probability of a repetition of what happened remains very high.

    Slide 6

    How to resolve school conflict?

    A conciliation meeting is a negotiation between the parties to the conflict.

    Such negotiations allow people to discuss the situation and find the best way out of the conflict. Negotiations are conducted by a specially trained facilitator. He is not on anyone's side. The facilitator ensures that the dialogue proceeds respectfully and without pressure. He helps the meeting participants better understand each other and discuss issues:

    • Why did the conflict happen? What consequences did it lead to?
    • How can this situation be resolved?
    • How can we ensure that this situation does not happen again?
  • Slide 7

    Conciliatory meeting

    Resolving a conflict through negotiations gives a teenager self-confidence, and this, in turn, allows you to build a more open relationship with the other party. As a rule, the other side responds in kind. And isolation and powerlessness are replaced by openness and self-confidence.

    Slide 8

    I. Collection of information:

    • obtaining information about the conflict,
    • collecting additional information (who else may be involved in resolving the situation).
  • Slide 9

    Stage II. Preliminary meeting

    (separately) :

    “about events and facts” (please tell us about the situation that happened from the point of view of the conflicting parties);

    - “about the state, feelings” (so that the person “let off steam”);

    “about the consequences of what happened” (how his life changed after the situation);

    - “On possible ways and means of correcting the situation” (talk about responsibility);

    Proposal for a meeting (about participation in the reconciliation program);

    The goal is to obtain consent to participate in reconciliation

    Slide 10

    Rules of conduct at a conciliation meeting:

    • You can't insult each other
    • can't interrupt
    • confidentiality of the meeting,
    • participation in the meeting is voluntary (you can leave the meeting at any time),
    • you can leave the office with the presenter for a while and discuss an exciting issue (if it’s unpleasant to talk in front of everyone),
    • The host can take the participant out for some time.
  • Slide 11

    Algorithm for holding a conciliation meeting

    Stage III. Conciliation meeting:

    The presenter welcomes the meeting participants, thanks them for coming, reminds them of the rules of the meeting, and asks the participants to tell about their vision of the situation.

    Reflect feelings! To clarify!

    Reflection of feelings - conversation about the consequences - collection of proposals (the best options are accepted) - conclusion of an agreement (what each party will do - the participants themselves write).

    Slide 12

    Both parties come to the meeting voluntarily!

    • The presenter does not find out who is right and who is wrong!
    • He neither accuses nor defends anyone!
    • The presenter takes a neutral position!
    • He is a mediator who helps the parties understand each other better!

    Order No. 20 of 08/30/2013

    Maintenance program

    School Reconciliation Service

    The program was compiled by:

    Baklykova E.V.

    Tyumantsevo 2014

    Explanatory note.

    At school, children spend most of their time, communicate with a huge number of people and often face situations where they need to make a decision on their own (without the participation of parents: with advice or initiative), without delaying it until later. It turns out that at school our children learn to live. Many parents and teachers name independence among the qualities they believe our children need. But at the same time, adults forget that the condition for the formation of that same independence is to provide the child with the opportunity to solve difficult issues himself and find ways out of conflict situations. It seems to the people around the teenager that if his independently made decision is implemented, the student will “break the woods” and therefore, out of good intentions, we rush to tell him a way out of the situation, or even actively participate in resolving it. At the same time, each adult pursues his own goal: the teacher - maintaining discipline and high levels of children’s behavior at school, parents - to avoid being called to school, to be able to tell relatives, friends, colleagues, etc. about the child’s successes.

    What does the teenager want in this situation? Satisfy his needs: to be heard, understood, to prove that his word is worth something. There is a completely legal way to give him such an opportunity, when the conflict situation is resolved with the participation of a third party. This activity is usually called mediation.
    Mediation is a special type of activity that consists in optimizing, with the participation of a third party, the process of finding a solution to the problem by the conflicting parties, which allows ending the conflict. Mediation is one of the most ancient and universal methods of conflict resolution

    To resolve various types of conflicts (not only school ones), it is possible to use the mediation method. The family reconciliation program is about overcoming injustice in intrafamily relationships, since it is precisely in the dysfunctionality of the family that the reasons for the deviant behavior of a teenager are often laid. In this case, the task is to overcome the interactions of its members that are generally destructive for the family. A family crisis may require deeper forms, such as family therapy, but a reconciliation program will provide an opportunity for family members to take a step toward recognizing the need for their own efforts and changes. Another example of using this method is a school conference (resolving conflicts between classes, student and class, class and teacher).

    Based on the above information, we can come to the conclusion that in modern society there is a need to create a School Reconciliation Service, in which this method of resolving conflict situations is widely used.

    This program reveals the structure of the work of this service in the Tyumentsevskaya secondary school.

    The goal of this program is the socialization of students through constructive communication technologies (formation of a legal culture).

    Priority tasks:

      ensuring collaborative relationships between teachers and students;

    Target group: students, employees, parents of students at the Tyumentsev secondary school.

    (Conversation - dialogue)

    Goals and objectives:

      Develop ethical standards of behavior in society;

      Foster a culture of speech and behavior in public places; respect for the individual.

    Progress of the class hour.

    Food for thought.

    Discussion of the problem: “culture of behavior in public places.”

    Teacher.

    Guys, count how many people you meet every day. At home you communicate with your parents, brothers and sisters, and neighbors; at school - with teachers, schoolmates, librarian; in a store - with sellers, cashiers, strangers; on the street - with passers-by, old, young, adults, peers. It’s hard to count how many people you’ll see in one day: some you’ll just greet, some you’ll talk to, some you’ll answer a question, some you’ll ask yourself.

    Conclusion : a person is in constant communication with acquaintances and strangers at home, at school, in the cinema, in the library, in a store, in transport.

    The behavior of another person, a friendly or rude word spoken, often leaves a mark on the soul for the whole day. Often a good mood depends on whether a person was given attention, whether they were friendly and kind when communicating with him, and how offensive it can be from inattention, rudeness, or an evil word. Life in society requires that all people follow the rules of communication, which are mandatory for everyone: for adults, for boys and girls, for the calm and the playful.

    Discussion: “Rules that are binding for everyone”

    I suggest you discuss 3 rules.

      Accuracy rules . Work, social work, and entertainment are often collective, when success depends on everyone. Therefore, a well-mannered person must be precise. Precision is needed in everything: in work, in studying, in arriving on time at school, at a meeting, at the cinema, at the theater. Accuracy must be in the fulfillment of promises. You gave your word - keep it, you promised - come on time.

      Rules of delicacy. You need to help another person delicately, without emphasizing that you are doing a good deed, without bragging about it. After all, help is not provided in order to attract attention. You must be able to accept help, not refuse advice, not think that you are better than everyone and can do everything yourself.

      Rules of politeness. You must address other people politely, behave correctly in someone else’s home, be a hospitable host, be able to listen to others, know who you can call “you” and who you can address with “you,” be able to restrain yourself, and not be hot-tempered or irritable. It is necessary to learn to be easy to communicate; for this you need to be able to recognize a person’s state, his mood by appearance. First of all, you need to learn to recognize the mood of the closest people by their eyes: mom, dad, grandmothers, grandfathers, brothers and sisters. And depending on what you saw, build your behavior. It is difficult and not difficult. It’s difficult if you don’t understand why you need to take other people into account and don’t want to understand their condition. It’s easy if you think that although you are still small, you can already alleviate the grief or trouble of another person, and rejoice in other people’s joys.

    Discussion of situations: “Children’s behavior in public places (in the cinema, library, store, in the yard, on the street, in the school locker room, canteen).

    1st situation for discussion.

    Here are the children leaving the hall in a crowd after watching the film. Pushing. Some guys want to get out into the street quickly, so they push their neighbors with their elbows. There is a crowd at the exit. A boy walking down the stairs tripped and fell. How did the guys around you react?

    One rushed to the rescue, trying to help the boy get up, the other shouted: “Well, why are you pushing?!” the third laughed loudly and remarked: “What a clumsy one! The bear is clubfoot." The rest passed by indifferently, without even looking at the victim.

    One can imagine both the feelings of the fallen boy and the grief of those caught in the crowd created by the guys pushing each other and trying to get out first, without waiting in line.

    2nd situation for discussion.

    The class goes on an excursion to a museum. From a distance you can hear that a lot of guys are walking: they are talking loudly and laughing. Some try to trip up the person in front. But then we came across an Ice Cream kiosk. Immediately a crowd formed at the kiosk. Everyone wants to buy ice cream quickly. The children don't even hear the teacher. Finally, the class comes to a stop. The bus is approaching. Many guys come in with ice cream in their hands. It melts, drops fall on the clothes of passengers, who, of course, express dissatisfaction and indignation.

    In this situation, we again meet people who bring trouble to others.

    To avoid grief and quarrels, everyone needs to remember the very important rules of cultural behavior and be guided by them in everyday life.

    You must be able to live among people, behave politely, delicately, respect, spare and take care of each other.

    Introducing the "Don't" laws

    Teacher.

    Please take a closer look at this “Not.” This will come in handy.

    (Two students read alternately)

      Don't be in a hurry to be the first to sit down at the table.

      Don't talk while eating.

      Remember to close your mouth when you chew.

      Don't slurp.

      Don’t rush to be the first to jump out at the door.

      Don't interrupt the speaker.

      Don't wave your arms.

      Don't point your finger at anyone.

      Do not imitate the speaker, even if he stutters.

      Do not sit before your elder without his permission.

      Don’t extend your hand first, wait until the older one greets you.

      Don't forget to take off your hat when entering the house.

      Don't repeat "I" too often.

      Don’t pretend on a trolleybus or tram that you don’t notice the old man standing.

      Don't interfere in someone else's conversation without saying "excuse me."

      Don't forget to apologize if you accidentally pushed someone.

      Don’t sneeze “into space”, sneeze into a handkerchief.

      Don't keep your hands in your pockets.

      Don’t comb your hair anywhere, there’s a corridor and a foyer for that.

      Don't do anything that might bother other people.

      Don't say words whose exact meaning you don't know.

      Do not consider yourself the center of the Universe; this will always help you choose the right tone in communicating with others.

    (Reading and discussion of the story by M. Coreys, D. Fall “The School of Politeness”,

    Situations for discussion with children.

    1st situation.

    Lena urgently needed to contact the teacher, and she was talking to her friend the teacher. Lena ran up to the teacher and said: “Elena Petrovna...”

      What error did you notice?

      What advice would you give to a girl?

    2nd situation.

    Misha came to Petya’s house to do homework together. They worked conscientiously and seriously. At this time, Petya’s mother came, loaded with bags, and said: “Petya, help me carry the bags to the kitchen.” Petya said: “Mom, we are busy with serious business - lessons.”

    Express your opinion about the boys' behavior. What mistakes in their behavior did you notice?

    Conclusion:

    Training session “I AM A MEDIATOR” for leading school reconciliation services.


    Annotation:
    The creation of a school reconciliation service is a civilized way of resolving conflicts in the school environment. The training lesson involves familiarization in a form accessible to students with the basics of conflict management, with an analysis of the influence of emotional states on the development of events, with the laws of negotiations. The lesson offers practical resource material that is useful in working with students on the formation of educational skills and personal competencies in the context of the introduction of the Federal State Educational Standard.

    Target: nurturing in the younger generation the need and readiness for constructive interaction with people.

    Upon entering, each participant chooses a figure (a certain color, shape and written number).
    Participants are seated in groups as desired.

    1) Exercise “One sentence”
    All groups stand up.
    - Everyone raise their heads and look at the ceiling.
    - Looking at the ceiling, remember what was “the best” for you in recent days.
    - Whoever remembers, choose a keyword for this “very-very” one.
    - Whoever is ready (that is, picked up), sits down.
    On the group piece of paper, each person should write their own keyword. Change the leaves into groups.
    - From all the words written down by the neighboring team, compose one sentence (you can add words and change endings)
    - Send a messenger with your proposal to the team that compiled the list of words.

    Autumn–winter
    We present to your attention an excerpt from the cartoon “The Bridge”
    (0.0 – 1. 21)
    So, we have gathered today to learn how to resolve conflict situations.
    The tale begins:
    “Three states lived not far from each other. Some owned a large wide river, others a forest, and others a plain. They lived prosperously, well and calmly, until one day a wanderer, an impoverished king, appeared. For this reason he was angry, bitter, and envious. He decided to quarrel between the two states and re-seat the throne. He started a rumor that the residents of the district decided to attack the forest dwellers and take possession of the forest.”
    In the next exercise we will try to get accurate information.

    4) Exercise “Mediator”
    Come up with 8 words related to the school conciliation service, each of which uses one letter from the word “Mediator”. For example,

    Explain the meaning of the word “Mediator” (leader of the conciliation program, neutral mediator)
    Participants are seated in groups according to the shape of the figures.
    The tale continues:
    “The forest dwellers did not figure out what was going on, they believed everything and attacked first. The people of the district did not understand the situation and sent their messengers to find out what was going on. The messengers greeted them very aggressively, with rude statements. A dispute broke out"
    The purpose of the following exercises is to show how important it is to be able to assess your condition and your feelings.

    5) Exercise “Gallery of Emotions”
    The presenter invites you to visit the gallery of emotions (posters and photographs “Emotions and Feelings” are hung on the board)
    Photos are presented here. Try to see the emotions that are expressed in these photographs. The names of the emotions are written on the cards. You will need to take a card and find a photo that matches this emotion. You determine the number of cards you will work with yourself.” (Cards - resentment, sadness, surprise, determination, horror, passion, admiration, grief, anxiety, fear, interest, joy, excitement.) Thus, under each photo the names of 2-4 emotions appear. This is followed by discussion and verification.
    Why are all the photographs of children?
    Attention! Now I invite you to take part in a quick survey:
    1.According to the classic description, this feeling corresponds to slightly elongated lips, raised and elongated eyebrows, raised and elongated upper eyelids, tense lower eyelids. This reminded the author of a Russian folk saying. Name this feeling. (Fear)
    2. One of Vasnetsov’s paintings depicts two birds with human faces. In the title of the painting, in addition to the names of the birds – Sirin and Alkonost – two basic opposing emotions are mentioned. Name them. (Sadness and Joy)
    3. This emotion occurs in unexpected situations. If the situation turns out to be safe, it turns into interest, if pleasant, into joy, if dangerous, into fear. Name the emotion. (Astonishment)
    4. All three photographs express the same emotion. Name it. (Disgust)
    5.Attention, excerpt from dialogue.
    Consultant. How did you feel when you found out that you were being deceived?
    Client. Well, you can probably guess for yourself.
    Consultant. I can only imagine how I would feel if I were you. But it would be nice if you could name your feelings yourself.
    Client. Yes, I just almost beat him up! I felt... amazing. (Anger, indignation)
    Checking answers. As a gift - a smile sticker.

    6) Exercise “Reflection of feelings”
    It is necessary to identify the feeling that is hidden behind the statement and ask about it. For example,
    Do you feel offended?
    Did you feel offended?
    Are you offended?

    Maybe I did something wrong? Uncertainty, anxiety, doubt
    I tried to explain to her that I was not to blame for anything, but she attacked me like let’s yell, so I couldn’t stand it. Irritation, resentment, indignation, anger
    Now at least I can sit in class. Let them not talk, but they don’t call them names. Calm, confidence
    How could she do this to me, I was her friend. Regret, resentment, humiliation, betrayal
    He called my sister names, and why should I remain silent? Anger, indignation
    I didn’t do anything, I just wanted to crack him after his words. Anger, anger, irritation
    I don’t understand what I did wrong, why he did this. Doubt about one's actions, uncertainty, powerlessness
    I don't want to talk to you about anything, leave me alone. Resentment, irritation, anger
    What if he starts calling me names again? Anxiety, worry, fear
    I'm doing everything wrong! Fear, irritation, grief
    This is all nonsense! Resentment, anger, indignation
    I won't go to school anymore! Anxiety, resentment, fear, protest

    Participants are seated in groups according to the written number.
    The tale continues:
    “Without understanding the situation, the messengers returned home. Several proposals were made at the council. Some suggested leaving this shore, throwing away everything they had acquired, swimming to the other shore and living in peace again. Others suggested fighting to the bitter end. Still others suggested sitting down at the negotiating table and discussing the current situation. The fourth relied on others, remained quietly silent, avoided discussion, and did not make any attempts to resolve the conflict.”

    7) Exercise “Ways of behavior in conflict”
    What ways of dealing with conflict do you see among board members? (advance, discussion, retreat, avoiding conflict)
    What method is used in restoration technologies, what is attractive about it? (“discussion”, because the emotional state in this case is the most positive).
    The tale continues:
    “A respected elder stood up from the table and proposed discussing the current situation on the neutral side of two warring states, in the presence of a third country. Finding out the reasons for the conflict, the third party asked a simple question: “Why was this necessary? Someone remembered the wandering king and his evil sayings."

    8) Exercise “Reflection of needs”
    Imagine that you are leading a reconciliation program. Your interlocutor says the following phrase. What will you tell him?
    Start a sentence with:
    “It’s important for you that...”
    I don't like being yelled at. He has no right. It is important for you to be respected.
    It is important for you to be spoken to in a normal tone.
    If I make peace with him, then everyone will think that he won and I lost. It's important for you to win.
    It is important for you not to lose your authority.
    I don't think our meeting will change anything. It is important for you to consider different options for resolving the situation.
    It is important for you to resolve this issue yourself.
    Why does he force me to wear something I don't like? I want to wear the clothes I want. It is important for you to make your own decisions.
    I want to answer him in the same way. Let him know how it was for me. It is important for you to restore justice.
    It's important for you to stand up for yourself.
    It's important for you to take revenge.
    I don’t even know what to say, it’s like I didn’t do anything wrong. It is important for you to think about it in order to tell it.
    It is important for you to avoid punishment.
    Why should I apologize? He must. It is important for you to prove that he is guilty.

    9) Exercise “Working with media material”
    from the movie “Lilya forever” (0:26:10 – 0:29:10)
    Analyze the video from the mediator’s point of view.
    1) What feelings do the participants in the conflict experience?


    2) What needs do the conflict participants have?
    The offender _____________________________________________________
    Victim ______________________________________________________________
    3) What options for resolving the conflict are possible?
    4) If the conflict is resolved, what benefits will the parties receive?
    5) In what cases might it be difficult for a mediator to maintain a neutral position?
    Participants are seated in groups as originally
    (optional).
    The tale continues:
    “Sitting at the round table, the conversation turned to more pressing matters. The three states came to the conclusion that they need to unite and live together.”

    10) Exercise “Paraphrasing”
    Paraphrase the rules of conversation between conflicting parties at a reconciliation meeting.

    Communicate your emotional state.

    Refer to facts, not interpretation.

    Find a specific solution in a specific situation.

    Offer options for getting out of the situation.
