Mediation and Conflict Resolution in Education (MACRE)

Mediation and Conflict Resolution in Education (MACRE) refers to methods used to address and resolve disagreements or disputes between students, teachers, or school staff. It involves a neutral third party helping those in conflict communicate effectively, understand each other's perspectives, and work towards a mutually acceptable solution. The goal is to foster a positive learning environment, promote understanding, and prevent conflicts from escalating. MACRE emphasizes active listening, empathy, and problem-solving skills, ultimately helping maintain respect and cooperation within the school community.
