2G: Trauma Informed Schooling
When called to teach students affected by trauma, teachers can be faced with many challenges. The Catholic Ethos embedded into our schools can provide a restorative environment where students may begin to recover from trauma. This workshop will offer theoretical background on trauma and practical interventions to empower teachers when working with vulnerable students.
