That the Parliament notes the recent publication by Quakers in Britain of the report Peace at the Heart: A relational approach to education in British schools; recognises what it sees as the importance of equipping all learners with the skills and knowledge to promote a culture of peace and non-violence; notes what it sees as the report's recognition of Scotland’s inclusive approach to discipline within schools and the fall in permanent exclusions that has reportedly resulted, and encourages all schools and local authorities to read the report and explore how they can place peace at the heart of their approach to education.
