Services Offered By Hope Mediation

Service Provision

Peer Mediation is a service for pupils in schools (both primary and secondary) It enables students to resolve their own conflicts within the school and develop negotiation skills. Peer mediation is used as a preventative method to resolve smaller conflicts before they turn into larger ones. Providing peer mediation in schools can help to change the culture within the school. The training gives children and young people life skills. Peer mediation training is available throughout the UK. The Scottish Mediation Network www.scottishmediation.org.uk has a number of free resources about peer mediation. Carol has trained many young peer mediators in schools nationally (Scotland) and internationally(Sri Lanka)

ASN Mediation services provide independent mediators to work with parents and the education authorities where there is a dispute around the education of a child or young person with additional support needs.This may be linked into the issue of coordinated support plans(CSP) It is now a legal requirement for all local authorities in Scotland to have the provision of independent mediation.

The two main providers for this work in Scotland are Common Ground Mediation www.commongroundmediation.co.uk and Resolve www.childreninscotland.org.uk
