What does trauma-informed teaching really look like in the classroom, and can we really achieve it?

Maybe you, like many other teachers, will reach the end of a busy day feeling exhausted, deskilled and less than keen to dive into a book on the theory of trauma. Luckily you won't find any complex theory or jargon in this book, but you will gain an understanding of how small humans develop, how perplexing behaviours can be explained and learn inclusive strategies that will help all children in your classroom and school. Part 1 provides you with an explanation of what trauma-informed teaching involves. Then, Part 2 lists an A-Z of issues and behaviours for you to flip to in your busiest moments, ranging from Aggression and Lateness right through to Learning Challenges and Zzz (sleep issues).

Gain new understanding into the children in your classroom with this book offering you strategies to better support every child's mental health and resilience.

Reviews for The A-Z of Trauma-Informed Teaching: Strategies and Solutions to Help with Behaviour and Support for Children Aged 3-11

If you want a book to assist with your work with traumatised children, chose this one. It is the best! This is the most comprehensive, accurate, and practically valuable guide for managing children made vulnerable by adversity which all teachers should have. The authors provide a beautifully written, well laid out, accessible and accurate understanding of a highly complicated area and go on to identify all (yes all) the problems that can arise in an educational context with a child who experienced adversity and trauma and offer explanations and practical solutions to support their management. The book is a remarkable and invaluable resource for all those working with children, from senior clinician to professional support staff. -- Professor Peter Fonagy, OBE, Chief Executive, Anna Freud National Centre for Children & Families A must read for all teachers! The A-Z will empower and equip teachers to understand trauma and create the best possible environment for children to feel safe enough to learn. -- Helen Fearn, Primary Teacher, Adoptive Mum, Foster parent, Therapeutic Parenting Coach and Trainer
