The peer mediation program invites students to take responsibility for their actions by working together to find solutions to conflict. Two trained students (mediators) lead the disputants through a structured process. It aims to:

• increase awareness of how conflict can affect peoples' lives
• improve communication between students and between teachers and students
• teach students skills such as listening, critical thinking and problem solving
• empower students by having them take greater responsibility for resolving their own disputes.
