Today, with a colleague from the Aboriginal Education Team, I co-delivered a two-way professional development session to all staff at Broome Senior High School on the subject of trauma responsive practice. This was the culmination of days of planning, based on years of reading, reflecting and practice. We reflected on what it means to experience trauma, how this affects physiology and what teachers and school staff can do in response; primarily, to create an environment where relational safety is prioritised. We provided concrete advice on how to do this across three domains of relationships, learning environment and pedagogy and provided a checklist for staff to use to support implementing learnings from this PD. We invited feedback from staff, which was incredibly positive, as evidenced here and here.
