What We Carry: Trauma-Informed Teaching in Irish Education

Wednesday, October 26, 2022 - 17:00 to 20:30
SE 132 School of Education Building

This research seminar organised by Dr Catriona O’Toole, School of Education in collaboration with Doctoral and Masters students, takes a deep dive into emerging research on childhood adversity, trauma and education.

We know that childhood adversity is common and has potentially wide-ranging impacts on health, wellbeing, educational progress, and future life chances. But how should education systems respond? In this seminar, we explore the initiation and implementation of trauma-informed approaches in Irish education. We look at how education professionals and academics are working together to co-create and embed bespoke trauma-informed strategies tailored to particular school communities. 

Open to MU students/colleagues & education professionals.
