| Abstract | Over the past decade, considerable focus has been on the classroom and disciplinary responses that disproportionately affect students enduring adversity and disadvantage. As part of an Exploratory Sequential Mixed Methods research project, the current study explores the barriers and enablers for mainstream classroom teachers engaging in professional development focused on trauma-informed pedagogy through participation in a forty-item online survey. These results are consistent with the literature and highlight the problem being greater than single classroom teacher practice and possibly are amendable with policymakers and leadership staff making changes to practice, policies, and frameworks at a sector and school level. |
