dc.description.abstract | In each of the various locations in which young people are detained on justice-related matters in Australia and New Zealand, there operates a school or education centre. The educational staff who work in these locations navigate the requirements, restrictions, policies and procedures of both educational governing bodies and youth-justice related site administrators to provide relevant learning experiences to students with complex life experiences and learning needs. This presentation will provide a brief summary of education provision within justice-related youth detention across Australia and New Zealand. Special attention will be given to the direct and indirect strategies employed throughout education programming to promote the development of empathy and socio-emotional wellbeing among students. The presentation will highlight the importance of skills in social understanding and emotional regulation for both accessing education and desisting from offending behaviour. Importantly, it will give insight into the outstanding and innovative work being conducted by educational teams operating within secure youth justice facilities in Australia and New Zealand. | |
