    Senior Mental Health Lead - Trauma-Informed Practice - Fight, Flight, Freeze, Friend or Flop and Unmet Needs - S1 EP5

    Welcome to the Senior Mental Health Lead series. 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 week's episode, we discuss 'Fight, Flight, Freeze, Friend or Flop and Unmet Needs'. The freeze, flop, friend, fight or flight reactions are immediate, automatic and instinctive responses to fear that are likely to be the responses experienced by learners affected by ACEs. In this podcast, we consider these responses and what they can tell us about the experiences and feelings of our students, which will then inform how we work with them. Hosted on Acast.

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.

    Welcome to the Senior Mental Health Lead series. This podcast seeks to support everybody working in the school's 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.

In today's episode we discuss 'What is Trauma?'. Trauma results from an event, series of events, or set of circumstances that is experienced by an individual as harmful or life threatening. While unique to the individual, generally the experience of trauma can cause lasting adverse effects, limiting the ability to function and achieve mental, physical, social, emotional or spiritual well-being. In this podcast, we will unpick this concept, examining how this may manifest itself in school-life. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
