At Abbeys Primary School, being trauma informed means we recognise that children’s behaviour, emotions, and learning can be affected by difficult or stressful experiences. We aim to create a safe, supportive, and nurturing environment where every child feels understood, valued, and ready to learn.
A trauma-informed approach helps us respond with empathy, consistency, and care, building strong relationships and helping children develop confidence, resilience, and emotional wellbeing. By understanding each child’s needs, we can support them to thrive both academically and personally.
This week staff continued their training using VR headsets! What great fun!
