Another group of year 5 Peer Mediators completed their training on Wednesday morning at Poverest Primary School. I realised that we've been training Peer Mediators at Poverest since 2017 - that's 108 children trained and out there in the world with fantastic listening skills, great empathy and the ability to resolve conflicts; well done and thank you, Paul Haylock

Two groups of VERY enthusiastic, and capable, Peer Mediators completed their training at Belvedere Junior School (The Pioneer Academy) yesterday. I loved over-hearing one of them saying to his classmate, as he headed back to class, "I'm over the moon!" I look forward to seeing them for their refresher session in September.

I love the Peer Mediation Pod in Rockmount Primary School's playground.... what a great place for the children to go to solve their conflicts. I also love the face of one of the trainee PMs in action in their session today 😆 and the others hard at work sorting the PM steps into order.
