In today’s schools, an overemphasis on assessment and a strictly “hyper-rational” approach often fuels conflict, hindering both academic success and student well-being. Restorative Peace in Schools offers a practical, proven process to transform this culture. In this thought-provoking book, Roy goes beyond simple knowledge acquisition, introducing wisdom-based practices that build social and emotional skills, resilience, and overall well-being.

Drawing on the work of Abraham Maslow and Clare Graves, the book presents a unique pedagogy that balances the arts and sciences to help foster well-rounded, thoughtful citizens. It provides teachers and school leaders with actionable strategies to create collaborative learning environments where conflict is replaced by restorative peace, leading to improved behavior and stronger academic outcomes.

At a time when school conflicts are escalating, this handbook offers an effective and timely solution for creating lasting positive change.
