What do attendees say?

​

'We got Sarah in to run an introduction to trauma-informed teaching, for both teachers and administrative staff. The session was carefully planned and run; very rewarding both for people who knew next to nothing about trauma beforehand and those who knew a little bit; and it gave us space to apply principles of trauma-informed teaching to the specific settings and situations we interact with students in. Sarah ran the session twice for us so we had a large group of staff benefitting from this training, and almost all of them said they wanted to learn more so we are bringing Sarah back in to deliver an advanced session as well.'
