Our Trauma Awareness Training for School Staff Well-being provides adults that work with young people with a foundational understanding of trauma, its impact and strategies for support and self-care. The focus of this training is for school staff themselves – not children (although they are talked about quite a lot!).
Participants can expect an informative and interactive session that includes discussions, practical exercises and self-assessment activities. By the end of the session, participants will feel more confident in recognising and addressing trauma, both in themselves and others and will have a toolkit of techniques to support well-being.
What you can expect from this training:
- Understanding Trauma: Learn about the different types of trauma and how trauma expresses itself in the body, brain and behaviour.
- Impact of Trauma: Explore the effects of trauma on adults working in schools, including ‘operating in survival mode’ for education staff and the significance of working with children with Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs).
- Recognising Trauma Responses: Identify common reactions to trauma and understand the importance of feeling safe.
- Supportive Techniques: Discover techniques to create a safe environment, how to talk about trauma and when to ask for help.
- Available Support Services: Gain knowledge of the support services available for trauma and how to access them.
