Get your students to do a 30-second pitch in front of the class on their business idea. 👉 What does the Product/Service do? 👉 What problem does it solve? • 👉 How is it different? 👉 Why should the customer care? This is a great way to get students to refine their pitch!

In Restorative Practice, every conversation counts. Small moments matter, as each interaction with a student (parent and colleague) is a step towards building a positive school culture 🌱
