Peer Mediation

HOW IT WORKS:

Peer mediation is for people who have a problem with other students. The problem may have erupted into a fight in the playground.  It may be about a classroom misunderstanding about friendships.  It could be about relationships, especially when people say things they shouldn’t say about other people. Or the problem might be about students picking on other students.

THE SERVICE:

  • is available to every student
  • runs every lunchtime
  • is completely confidential
  • is run by students, not teachers
  • lets students air differences with a third party who doesn’t take sides
  • helps students find answers which should work

 HOW STUDENTS CAN USE THE SERVICE:

  • Check out the photos of peer mediators in the library - they will be rostered on different days
  • Make an appointment by placing a note in the box located in the Library
  • In your note give your name(s) and any details you can about your problem (your name is enough if you do not wish to say more!)
  • Turn up at the seminar room next to the careers office at lunchtime on the day you have made an appointment.
  • If you have any problems with the service you can see one of the teachers who organise the rosters for peer mediation.
