Trauma-Informed Practice: CPD Bundle

“Trauma-informed practice isn’t about lowering the bar. It’s about changing how we hold it.”

Now that’s got your attention…

This CPD doesn’t pretend behaviour is neat, or that kids arrive with warning labels saying ‘handle with care’. It’s about what you actually do when Year 7 won’t sit down, Year 10 won’t speak up, or Year 12 ghosts your lesson altogether.

✅ What’s Inside

• PowerPoint Deck — editable, ready to deliver, no faff.
• Facilitator Notes — bridges, talking points, and the answers you’ll need when staff inevitably say “but that won’t work here.”
• Cheat Sheet — quick swaps and the consequence checklist that keeps things safe, not soft.
• DIY Task Pack — discussion activities that surface real practice instead of filling time.

🎯 What You’ll Learn

• Why trauma-informed ≠ “soft touch” — and why boundaries still matter.
• How to make consequences teach instead of punish.
• Why “all behaviour is communication” isn’t wrong… but isn’t enough.
• The link between staff behaviour and school culture (yep, that means us).
• Quick wins that bring calm without chaos.

👀 Who’s It For?

Anyone working with kids who’ve ever thought: “Surely there’s a better way than detention, exclusion, repeat.”
