A practical rollout model for student support teams.

Disrupter University helps schools move from interest to implementation: selecting a starting point, training the adults, supporting the first cycle, reviewing evidence, and planning the next step.

Start where the school is.

Schools do not need to launch everything at once. The implementation model is designed around manageable entry points.

  1. One student
  2. One small group
  3. One building team
  4. One pathway
  5. One school visit
  6. One dashboard pilot

The implementation cycle.

  1. Listen and identify needReview existing records, staff perspective, student needs, and current support structures.
  2. Choose the starting pointSelect the first pathway, student group, team, or dashboard use case.
  3. Prepare the adultsTrain the facilitator, building representative, staff partner, and school leader roles.
  4. Run the cycleDeliver the pathway or support model with consistent practice and evidence collection.
  5. Review the recordLook at entry evidence, practice evidence, support needed, and exit recommendations.
  6. Decide what scalesKeep what worked, adjust what needs support, and plan the next group or pathway.

What schools can choose.

Pilot support cycle

For schools starting with one student or one small group.

  • Planning call
  • Pathway selection support
  • Staff role setup
  • Implementation check-in
  • Exit review

Building implementation support

For schools launching a repeatable support cycle inside a building.

  • Staff training
  • Pathway planning
  • Building representative support
  • School visit or virtual review
  • Evidence review and next-step planning

Train-the-trainer

For schools or networks preparing internal staff to sustain the work.

  • Facilitator preparation
  • Practice with pathway fit
  • Evidence collection guidance
  • Implementation checklist
  • Readiness conversation

Dashboard implementation

For schools licensing BTG Dashboard.

  • Account setup support
  • Role and workflow training
  • Survey and pathway workflow orientation
  • Evidence documentation support
  • Reporting review

What we need from the school.

  • A small student group or starting population
  • Existing observations, support data, or referral patterns
  • A point person
  • Staff partner or building representative
  • Time for sessions or check-ins
  • Agreement on evidence and communication
  • A follow-up date to review what happened

What the school gets.

Clear starting point
Defined roles
Pathway or program plan
Staff practice tools
Student support records
Entry-to-exit evidence
Next-step recommendations
A realistic scale-up plan

How this fits the restorative continuum.

Disrupter University implementation strengthens the restorative continuum by giving teams a teachable pathway between universal practices and intensive intervention.

Universal foundationRelationships, routines, shared language.
Targeted pathway supportSelected students receive pathway instruction and supported practice.
Repair and re-entrySkills support reflection, repair, and return to community.
Intensive coordinationEvidence informs additional support when needs continue.

Restorative practices repair the relationship. GOAT pathways help teach the skill the student needs to sustain the repair.

Implementation is not a one-time training.

A training can introduce the model, but implementation happens when adults practice the workflow, collect evidence, and review what students need next.

Coaching supports the adults

Evidence guides the next step

Questions about implementation.

How long does a pathway cycle take?

A typical cycle can run 6–8 weeks depending on schedule, attendance, and support needs.

Can we start with a small group?

Yes. A small group or single pathway is often the best starting point.

Do we need BTG Dashboard to begin?

No. Schools can begin with program implementation, but the dashboard makes documentation and reporting easier as the work scales.

Who should be involved?

A pathway lead, building representative, staff partner, and school leader or student support team member.

How does this avoid becoming another initiative?

It connects to existing MTSS, restorative, special education, and student-support work instead of sitting beside it.

Start with one manageable cycle.

We’ll help you select the starting point, prepare the adults, run the cycle, and review the evidence before scaling.
