This series of podcasts seeks to support everybody working in the schools sector to gain an understanding of what we mean by Trauma-informed practice, to understand what good practice in this area looks like and to share practical strategies that can really make a difference. We will consider the best available evidence from the fields of psychology, education research and the health and care sector to help us refine our approaches within the classroom.


In this weeks episode we discuss 'Adverse Childhood Experiences'. Childhood is a vulnerable time, and what happens to us then has significant impact. Adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) describe traumatic experiences that can have lasting effects into adulthood. The more ACEs someone experiences, the more challenging they may be to overcome. In this podcast, we take a look at what adverse childhood experiences are, what impact they may have, how to prevent them—and most importantly, explore coping strategies for those affected by ACEs.
