Trauma and school

Psychological trauma and its impact on daily school life

Titelbild Trauma und Schule. englisch
When we work with pupils and students, we encounter situations in which we cannot understand a reaction or a disturbing behaviour. There are also situations, which provoke in us, as teachers and social workers, strong negative feelings. We are even surprised about the strength of these emotions and sometimes we, too, cannot understand them. Six European schools applied for Erasmus+ in early 2015, submitting the project ‘YESTERMORROW’ with the main focus on the mental health of students. In this brochure you find general knowledge about trauma and many valuable examples on how to create a ‘safe place’ in schools all over Europe..
