Inclusive Practices Academy - YEAR 2 ACADEMY (2025-2026)
Inclusive Practices Academy (IPA) Year 2 is designed to deepen, extend, and sustain the learning from Year 1 by supporting school teams in the implementation of inclusive practices. Building on foundational content from the first year, Year 2 offers opportunities for collaborative planning, targeted content refreshers, and deeper dives into key areas such as inclusive instructional design, co-teaching refinement, and data-informed practices. Throughout the year, participating schools will also have access to in-district consultation to support coaching, problem-solving, and alignment of inclusive efforts within their unique contexts. The goal is to support schools in shifting from learning to action—embedding inclusive practices into daily systems, instruction, and culture.
From Vision to Action: Strengthening Inclusive Implementation
Day 1 will focus on helping teams revisit their inclusive vision and assess the progress and challenges of implementation so far. Teams will engage in reflection, analyze building-level systems, and explore how inclusive practices are (or are not yet) embedded into daily routines.

Leveraging MTSS through Foundational Restorative Practices
What is Restorative Practices?
Restorative Practices is a comprehensive approach to support connection and community building in schools and establish structures to repair harm. When implemented comprehensively and systematically, this approach has been found to reduce violence, unwanted behavior and bullying, and to increase restoration of relationships. When implemented within a multi-tiered structure, like MTSS, it significantly improves school culture and decreases the use of exclusionary discipline practices.
What is the structure of the training series?
This immersive training series includes three full-day sessions with built-in time for implementation, designed to support your MTSS systems. It is intended for Leadership Teams, such as your MTSS Team, Teachers and Teacher Leaders, and other Support Staff. Participants will leave with tools and strategies that can be applied immediately. This training is based on the Ali Hearn Coaching and Consulting Model.
