In association with Empowerment Trust – Trauma-informed Education Webinar with Marge Pryor.
Trauma is common and plays a complex role in our lives. Rangatahi will experience trauma in different ways and at different stages of their growth and development which will impact their sense of safety and belonging, and in turn, their ability to engage at school.
Trauma-informed Education is an approach that uses knowledge about trauma and its effects to create safe learning environments for ākonga – environments that cultivate connectedness and empowerment, model empathy and promote inclusion.
