Pooky Ponders - Big Questions with Brilliant People

How can schools take a trauma informed approach post pandemic? | Stuart Guest

In today's episode I'm exploring the question 'How can schools take a trauma informed approach post pandemic?' with Stuart Guest.

Stuart has over 13 years' experience as a head teacher and is a father of a birth child and two adopted children. He has developed trauma friendly approaches at his school and has seen the positive impact this can have on pupils, families, staff and outcomes for his school.

I've brought this episode forward in my schedule as I couldn't wait to share it with you. Listen to the end where Stuart's closing thoughts left me lost for words and with a massive lump in my throat!

Enjoy the show ...

--
If you want to get started with a trauma informed approach, Stuart suggests that his blog post will be helpful:

https://educationandadoption.wordpress.com/2018/02/12/how-can-schools-become-attachment-and-trauma-friendly-places/

You can follow Stuart on twitter @stuart_guest and you can follow me @PookyH -we'd love to hear what you think of the ideas in this episode.

The Educational Psychology Team provides a consultation, assessment and training service to schools and educational settings in Warrington, working with children and young people aged 0-25. It also provides statutory assessment advice to the local authority for children and young people undergoing Education Health and Care assessments.

Following consultation/assessment around or with individual children or young people the Educational Psychologist will provide the school/setting, parents/carers and young people (over 16) with a written report detailing the consultation/assessment findings. The report will make specific recommendations about how school/setting staff and parents can help the children/young people make progress in their areas of need. Educational Psychologists work through schools/settings to support children and young people and do not typically work with them directly following the initial consultation/assessment session; however, when appropriate some time-limited direct therapeutic work with children and young people is possible.

Listen to our New podcast!

We've launched a NEW podcast - Lessons In Dyslexic Thinking - which features conversations with the world's most inspiring dyslexics where we find out what Dyslexic Thinking is and how each of us can employ it to change the world. Hear powerful stories from spies and sports stars, explorers and entrepreneurs. Hosted by the world's leading expert in Dyslexic Thinking, Kate Griggs (founder of Made By Dyslexia). Listen in on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Amazon Music or YouTube NOW!

New DyslexAI campaign launches

We have launched a brand new campaign which calls for every organisation to promise to empower Dyslexic Thinking in every workplace.

Research shows that Dyslexic Thinkers have the exact skills needed for the workforce of today. Technology has taken over the skills we find challenging - and AI provides a truly revolutionary tool for dyslexics. So, if your organisation learns how to empower Dyslexic Thinking you can tap in to the talent that will move your business forward.

We can help you to Empower Dyslexic Thinking in your workplace with FREE training available from October, and by following our 4 easy steps NOW.
Find out more!

Our purpose

We're a global charity, led by successful dyslexics. We've built the world's largest community of dyslexic people and our allies. Our purpose is to help the world to Learn Dyslexia: to understand it, to value it and to support it.

We believe in the game-changing power of Dyslexic Thinking. After all, everything from the light bulb to the iPhone, the aeroplane to the motor car, was invented by a dyslexic mind. And our skills are vital in shaping the future too.

Our mission

Our mission is to train every teacher and help every workplace to spot, support and empower every dyslexic mind. This mission is aligned with the UN Sustainable Development Goals, and we aim to achieve this by 2030.

We're asking every school across the world to allow every teacher to #TakeADayForDyslexia and skill up using our FREE online training. To help workplaces, we've created guides to empower Dyslexic Thinking in every workplace.

21st century definition of dyslexia

Dyslexia influences as many as 1 in 5 people and is a genetic difference in an individual's ability to learn and process information. As a result, dyslexic individuals have differing abilities, with strengths in creative, problem-solving and communication skills and challenges with spelling, reading and memorising facts.

Generally, a dyslexic cognitive profile will be uneven when compared to a neurotypical cognitive profile. This means that dyslexic individuals really do think differently.

Traditional benchmarking disadvantages dyslexics, measuring them against the very things they find challenging.
