Refining beliefs
..refining beliefs is not ..so easy as it sounds. Each one of us becomes very comfortable with the particular set of beliefs that has got us where we are… it is only a preparedness to ask really difficult questions that allows us to confront the possibility that …. ‘the certain truths’ of yesterday become the ‘unquestioned myths’ of today.

Youth 2000Bullying at schools is a significant problemfor some students. This is particularly truefor younger schools students (Year 9students 38.8%, Year 13 students 13.3%).

Research
Studies suggest that a class that has a
bullying culture will make significantly less
academic progress than a comparable
bully-free group. (Cleary 2001)

and the school that systematically cultivates
habits and attitudes that enable young people
to face difficulty and uncertainty calmly,
confidently and creatively.

“When schools promote belonging and ensure high levels of involvement between staff and students, bullying is reduced.” Fuller
What would happen if we treated the student as someone whose opinion mattered in the introduction and implementation of reform in schools?” Michael Fullen

When students are in touch with their
community and culture and are confident
about their own identity, they can develop
resilience to keep reaching out and making
connections to other people and new ideas,
even when it is challenging.

Humpty Dumpty
“Using Humpty Dumpty as an analogy , we were no longer going to call for more horses and more king’s men, instead we set ourselves the task to work harder at determining ways to make his shell stronger so that he would be less likely to fall to pieces when he took a tumble”.

I have come to a frightening conclusion. I am thedecisive element in the classroom. It is my personalapproach that creates the climate. It is my mood thatmakes the weather. As a teacher I possesstremendous power to make a child’s life joyous. Ican be a tool of torture or an instrument ofinspiration. I can humiliate or humour, hurt or heal.In all situations it is my response that decideswhether a crisis is escalated or de-escalated, and achild humanised or de-humanised.”Haim G. Ginott
