Restorative justice is a revolutionary idea and approach to discipline. Restorative justice is based on four key aspects:
Respect: for everyone by listening and learning to value the opinion of others and not just your own. 
Responsibility: owning up to your own actions rather than blaming the next person.
Relationship-building: working through a structured, supportive process that aims to solve the problem and allows young people to remain in mainstream education.
Relationship-repairing: developing the skills within the school community so that students have the necessary skills to identify solutions and ensure behaviors don't become a habit
        It focuses on mediation and agreement rather than punishment.Normally in schools who don't practice restorative justice, students who get into or cause violent or potentially violent confrontations are quickly suspended without discussion. So these children are banned from school for a few days then come back to school more upset than they were before and wind up doing the same thing that got them suspended the first time.
