Bio:
Lynley Hyslop is a co-director in her company Praxis Promotions Limited, a professional 
development organisation in the Hawkes Bay, New Zealand. She is contracted to The Peace Foundation to facilitate Cool Schools a peer mediation programme to primary schools in Hawkes Bay. She has a background in classroom teaching, Resource Teaching of Learning and Behaviour support for classroom teachers and in senior management.
Lynley kindly recorded herself as she introduced Cool Schools in a school on the East Coast of New Zealand.
This podcast is divided into two unequal halves.
The first is a discussion I had with Lynley about the Cool Schools programme and the latter is the recorded training session.
It is hoped that as you listen you appreciate, as I did, the potential for students to take responsibility in the playground, develop key life skills in dealing positively with conflict.
