Hi, I'm Kristy (B.Ed, MAPP)

Educator, Consultant & Advocate for Restorative School Cultures

I hold a bachelor of education and a masters in applied positive psychology. This unique pairing forms the foundation for the positive work I do with school communities.

As an educator myself I understand the privilege of that role and strive to positively impact those I have the pleasure of working with.

As founder and director of Restorative Pathways I support schools to create relational, thriving school cultures using the science of wellbeing, and restorative approaches to relationship management.

What my wonderful clients say

St Joseph’s College have had a healthy partnership with Kristy Elliott from Restorative Pathways for many years now. Our staff feel that Kristy is knowledgeable, relatable and is invested into helping our school continue to grow in the way we work with our students to get the best outcomes for all who are invested in them. I am more than happy to speak with any school who may like to learn more about our partnership.

Through our work with Kristy, we have been able to embed restorative practices into our student management policies, which has resulted in more positive relationships amongst all stakeholders, leading to improved student outcomes and wellbeing. Thank you Kristy for sharing your insights and expertise in bringing about real organisational transformation in this area.
