Managed Moves Schools Mediation

Squabbles between pupils are everyday occurrences that happen in almost every primary and secondary school across the UK. Whilst on most occasions the outcomes result in restored harmony, there can be occasions when the situation worsens.

It’s not just between pupils that conflicts can arise. When the friendship between peers go awry, parents can become embroiled in arguments with other parents or in disagreements against teachers. The effects, if not dealt with swiftly, can impact negatively on the attendance, learning and moral of those involved.

Whilst schools will have their own policies and procedures to resolve conflicts internally, it is not uncommon for these processes to be unsuccessful. If this is the case at your school, hiring a Mediator to deal with your matter (whether it involves pupils, parents, office staff, teachers, the head teacher or board of governors) will be the right course of action.
