It can be used both as an implementation guide, and also as a validated self-evaluation tool. \u00a0It builds upon and extends materials which have been piloted and used for a number of years by schools across the city. Restorative Approaches complement Glasgow City Council\u2019s vision of \u2018Towards the Nurturing City\u2019 and inclusion policy \u2018Every Child is Included and Supported\u2019. It is also recommended practice in national guidance e.g. \u2018Included, Engaged and Involved Part 2\u2019, (2017), and has a clear and consistent evidence base within education settings.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/glowblogs\/public\/glasgowpsychologicalservice\/uploads\/sites\/4587\/2022\/04\/11161029\/GRAF-document-2022-Form-Interactive.pdf\">Glasgow\u2019s Restorative Approaches Framework <\/a>\u00a0(GRAF) can be used by all sectors; early years establishments, primary schools, secondary schools and additional support needs provisions.
