Trauma Informed Practice- Quiz

Trauma-Informed Practice supports educators to understand what trauma is, how it can affect the developing brain, behaviour and learning, and how schools can respond effectively. Grounded in evidence and research, the module moves beyond theory to explore practical ways educators can create safe, supportive and inclusive environments for children and young people who may have experienced trauma.The module introduces the concept of becoming trauma-informed and trauma-assumed, encouraging educators to look beyond behaviour and consider the experiences, stressors and needs that may sit behind it. Participants explore core principles including safety, trust, collaboration, choice, empowerment, strong relationships, cultural responsiveness and avoiding re-traumatisation, before considering how these principles can inform everyday classroom and whole-school practice.<h3 id="2f12ea67-f8d7-4168-aed9-a52164aa5a77" data-toc-id="2f12ea67-f8d7-4168-aed9-a52164aa5a77" style="text-align: left; font-size: 20px; line-height: 1.2;">Learning Objectives</h3>By the end of this module, participants will be able to:<ul><li>Understand trauma, Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) and the potential impact of trauma on children and young people.</li><li>Explain how trauma and dysregulation can affect brain development, behaviour and a learner’s ability to access learning.</li><li>Recognise some of the ways unhealed trauma may present within an educational setting.</li><li>Understand the principles and benefits of trauma-informed and trauma-assumed approaches.</li><li>Identify practical approaches that promote safety, trust, regulation, positive relationships and inclusion.</li><li>Reflect on how classroom practice, interactions and wider school approaches can better support learners who may have experienced trauma.</li></ul><h3 id="19efdbc7-1447-43c1-9ecd-becd216d1a18" data-toc-id="19efdbc7-1447-43c1-9ecd-becd216d1a18" style="text-align: left; font-size: 20px; line-height: 1.2;">Target Audience</h3>All school staff, with particular relevance for:<ul><li>Classroom teachers</li><li>Teaching Assistants</li><li>Inclusion Teachers and Inclusion Assistants</li><li>Pastoral and wellbeing staff</li><li>Heads of Inclusion</li><li>Counsellors</li><li>Middle and senior leaders</li></ul>
