Reflection

Which ways of handling the situation are likely to lead to the problem being resolved, and what might make
it worse?

Imagine the following outcomes. What would each of them look like?

a) Student A ‘wins’ and Student B ‘loses’


b) Student A ‘loses’ and Student B ‘wins’
c) Student A ‘wins’ and Student B ‘wins’
d) Student A ‘loses’ and Student B ‘loses’

In each of the outcomes you have imagined, what are the feelings of Student A and Student B?

What are the likely future consequences of each of the outcomes you have imagined?

Who else might be involved in resolving the conflict?

What could their role be?

Now think of a different situation in which a problem might arise over resources at school.

Role-play the people involved in the problem and see if you can apply what you’ve learned to resolve the
problem.
