Teaching Kids with Trauma

Empower yourself with the skills to support every student.

Transform your classroom into a sanctuary of learning and healing!

In Australian schools, it’s estimated that up to 1 in 5 children have experienced some form of trauma. This reality underscores the critical need for educators to be equipped with the skills and knowledge to support these students effectively.

Join our impactful online workshop, “Teaching Kids with Trauma,” a full-day event dedicated to understanding, supporting, and empowering trauma-affected students in your classroom.

What You’ll Gain:

  • Insightful Knowledge: Understand the types of trauma and their profound effects on brain development and learning. Recognize the signs and symptoms of trauma in students.
  • Practical Strategies: Learn actionable techniques to create a safe, supportive, and engaging classroom environment. Build strong, trust-based teacher-student relationships.
  • Behaviour Management: Master positive behavior support and intervention strategies. Learn effective de-escalation techniques and crisis management to maintain a calm and productive classroom.
  • Emotional Support: Discover ways to promote emotional regulation, resilience, and social-emotional learning (SEL) in your students. Collaborate effectively with families and community resources to provide comprehensive support.
  • Self-Care Techniques: Prioritize your well-being with strategies to recognize and manage secondary traumatic stress. Develop personalized self-care plans to maintain your health and effectiveness as an educator.
