Everybody is talking about trauma informed practice in schools but what does it actually mean? There are a lot of misconceptions about what trauma informed practise is and so today I'm going to explain it all for you!


In this episode I will:

  • Reintroduce the podcast after a long break since season one
  • Touch on why education needs to change and how things are not working
  • Explain what trauma informed practice is- giving lots of real life examples
  • Touch on belief systems and thought processes based on our life experiences
  • Explain why telling children off isn't trauma informed
  • Touch on fight flight freeze and how children's behaviour is often linked to the brain and trauma
  • Discuss the misconception that trauma informed is a woolly approach with no rules or consequences
  • How to work with brain science - not against it!
  • How to tweak your responses and languages to be more trauma informed
  • Give you lots of examples, tips and ideas to take away
