Did you know...
In the UK, one in six children have experienced at least one significant Adverse Childhood Experience.
This can have a huge impact on their educational development and increase the risk of engaging in health-harming behaviours that severely damage overall wellbeing.
Trauma-Informed Practice typically takes a holistic approach, looking at the social, psychological, and physiological effects of trauma, and tailoring the response according to the specific needs of the individual.
Here's What You'll Learn
Enhanced Understanding
Delve into the fundamental principles of Trauma-Informed Practice and its profound impact on children's lives.
