Join this webinar, run by our A Trauma Lens Across Schools (ATLAS) practitioners, to learn about how trauma-aware practices can create supportive environments for all students and educators.
Challenging and stressful experiences in childhood, including adversity and trauma, can impact brain development and emotional regulation, which are key to academic success.
Trauma-aware education acknowledges the challenges students face before entering the classroom and emphasises the importance of relationships between students and educators.
During this 45-minute workshop, you’ll learn about:
- the importance of connection and attachment for educators and students
- the importance of tuning into the developmental age of students
- the impact of trauma and adverse experiences in childhood on brain development and emotional regulation

How can our ATLAS practitioners help your school thrive?
The ATLAS program equips educators with the tools and understanding to support students impacted by vulnerability and trauma, fostering opportunities for recovery and healing while creating safe and supportive learning environments for all.
"It's changed our staff's mentality of what trauma can look like. I think it's opened their minds about what different behaviours mean and what has led to it. It's led to the staff having more compassion, thinking, ‘Can I manage this a different way that may suit the student and get a better outcome?’"
– Rob Guppy, Acting Principal, St Albans North Primary School
