Trauma Informed Education

Our friendly team are on hand to answer any questions you may have so don’t hesitate to get in touch with us.

We strive to ensure that our staff have a through understanding of the precipitating factors that lead to trauma, our staff work hard to see beyond the behaviours and recognise the communication a young person is using.

Our bespoke staff training draws on the academic work of leading clinical child psychologists (most notably Dr. Myriam Silva who has provided additional training to our team and whose principles are embedded into our training and ethos). We work closely with homes, parents and carers to assess and find ways to work with young people with EBD and SEND needs. 

We focus heavily on restorative justice after a young person has been in crisis to show that relationships are still there, that we are consistent and that we care about the young person, their future and their friendships. Over time this approach has led to young people being able to manage their feelings when they feel anxious or uncertain, our successes with EBD young people are demonstrable, please contact us to arrange a visit we’d be happy to provide you with anonymised case studies.
