At EDClass, we recognise that many students come to us with diverse backgrounds and experiences, some of which may include trauma. Our commitment to providing a safe, supportive learning environment goes beyond academics – it includes equipping our teaching staff with the knowledge and skills to foster resilience and healing.

What is Trauma-Informed Teaching?

Trauma-informed teaching is an approach that acknowledges the impact of trauma on a child's learning and behaviour. It prioritises safety, trust, collaboration, and empowerment. Our training program helps educators understand the signs of trauma, respond with compassion, and create a classroom culture that promotes emotional well-being.

How We Train Our Teaching Staff

Our comprehensive trauma-informed training program covers:

• Understanding Trauma: We delve into the neurobiology of trauma, its effects on development, and common responses in children and adolescents.
• Recognising Signs: Educators learn to identify subtle and overt signs of trauma-related stress in students' behaviour and learning patterns.
• Building Trust and Safety: We explore strategies to create a predictable, structured environment where students feel safe to take risks and explore their potential.
• Communication and De-escalation: Teachers learn effective communication techniques to validate students' emotions, build rapport, and de-escalate situations when stress arises.
• Individualised Support: We emphasise the importance of tailoring teaching strategies to meet the unique needs of each student, considering their individual trauma histories.

The EDClass Difference
