Core values are the backbone of any school, especially in today's global challenges. Tim Fletcher's Complex Trauma videos provide valuable insights into how these values are crucial for creating a stable and nurturing environment, especially for students dealing with trauma. By promoting consistent, ethical behaviour and decision-making, these values serve as a guiding compass during a crisis, ensuring that the educational community remains committed to well-being and holistic development. Integrating core values aligned with resilience and recovery supports students in navigating their complexities and aids in cultivating a supportive, empathetic school culture.

🌟 Transforming Trauma into Triumph: A Call to Action for Our Schools 🌟 Did you know that early trauma in children can cast long shadows over their growth, affecting their emotional, physical, and academic well-being? But here's the hopeful part: simple acts of understanding, support, and compassion can make monumental differences in their lives. Imagine a world where every school is equipped with resources and training to not only recognize but also nurture children through their trauma. Small changes in our approach can create safe havens for healing and growth, allowing every child to turn their stories of struggle into narratives of resilience and success. ✨ Let's start a movement! 🚀 Advocate for trauma-informed practices in schools. Together, we can create environments where children feel understood, supported, and empowered to overcome their challenges. Because every child deserves a chance to thrive, not just survive. 💪 #TransformTrauma #SupportInSchools #ChildWellbeing #EducateEmpowerHeal

Transitions—changing topics, changing classes—are endings and beginnings. For children living with chronic and toxic stress, they can be very disruptive. How do you help the students manage transitions? Announce change before it happens—give an alert. Use a softer smoother tone than a clanging bell. Remember they may be on high alert because of their lives outside school. Oh, we have lots of ways you can help students with transitions as part of your day-to-day teaching in The Trauma Informed Academy for Educators. Curious?

For children who have experienced trauma, school can be more than just a place of learning—it's a refuge, a place where they can feel secure, supported, and seen. But for many, the challenges of trauma make it difficult to fully embrace this sense of safety. Establishing a nurturing environment within schools is critical for these students. It allows them to heal, trust, and engage more deeply in their education. Trauma-informed practices in schools can offer the stability and emotional safety that children need to thrive, despite the hardships they face daily. Creating an environment where every child knows they are protected and valued is essential. Together, we can support them on their journey to healing. 💪💙 #SafeSchools #TraumaInformedEducation #ChildhoodTrauma #MentalHealthInSchools #SafeLearningEnvironment #SupportingChildren #EmotionalSafety #EducationMatters #HealingThroughEducation #StudentWellbeing #AuthorTameraFoley #Education4AllNow

They teach with empathy, build trust, and help kids develop the resilience they need to overcome challenges. 💪 "We understand that students are going to need support and regulation in lots of different ways. some of the things that we see as a challenge, i.e. when students are less reluctant to be face to face, can actually be quite a positive because it gives us, as teachers, an opportunity to think about the regulation strategies that we provide to children.
