Education Branch

One of the earliest branches to be established, our education branch provides a forum for schools to reflect on and share learning from trauma-informed approaches. The Network recognises the wonderful work being done across schools to embed trauma-informed practice at a time when there is particular pressure on the education system. Although this branch is currently inactive due to a lack of branch leadership, we are exploring opportunities to remain connected with its members.

“Behaviour is the language of trauma. Children will show you before they tell you that they are in distress.”

– Dr Micere Keels, Founding Director of the Trauma Responsive Educational Practices Project (TREP Project)

This branch is currently fallow.

The Education Branch of the Trauma Informed Plymouth Network is currently inactive and seeking a branch lead for its renewal. If you are interested in this exciting local work, we’d love to hear from you.

Contact info@tipn.org to express your interest.
