THE UNPREDICTABILITY OF THE CONFLICT OR THE LATE FORECAST SERIOUS CONSEQUENCES.
THE INTENTION IS NOT WHAT COUNT.
Currently, the society as a whole, questioned the training of children and young people. It is usual, in this frame of mind, to look towards schools and jeopardize the professionals of education. And it is the responsibility of educators is not low and is on the rise. However, this discursive line raises two clear objections: first, it should be noted that the fact of depositing in the formation of children the burden of a future forged in the present, does not excuse errors and postpone solutions
Society as a whole must unlearn to transform itself, since there can be no education without commitment and consistency. Secondly, it must be said that there are few educators that, since the respective workplaces, cultivated, humble and quiet, interpersonal relations founded on democratic values and equity.
GET TO WORK.
It consists of best practices aimed at the creation and maintenance of a climate of coexistence healthy, seated in mutual respect, serve as examples for those centres that are raised to improve their current reality. It is not mere recipes, on the contrary, they are already experienced approaches that continue to evolve in interaction with different contexts.
THE FORCE OF THE MEDIATION
School mediation programs foster the ability to work together to fight against the problems and not the people. So they not only provide clear advantages in terms of prevention and intervention against conflicts, but also innovative and transformative potential of the educational context.
Mediation is based on equal dialogue, i.e. in the possibility to talk about conflicts face to face in a plane of horizontality. However, the real strength of mediation in the field of education is that, in reality, it's a genuine learning process.
DISCOVER MEDIATION IN PRIMARY EDUCATION
When they arrive at school, children start with
enthusiasm, they like to feel that they learn new things every day, and therefore
boast in front of their families by those achievements.
However, one of the aspects that most dislike them are
conflicts with other colleagues. At school, mediation is an
exclusive service that goes in the event of a conflict, but should not be the case.
