Abstract | There is a growing recognition of the challenge of maximising the learning days of students with complex social and emotional needs. Despite several emerging trauma-informed practice approaches, robust research evidence is lacking. The Trauma-informed Behaviour Support (TIBS) is a multi-tiered, trauma-informed practice program that has been disseminated in schools since 2015. The program was co-designed with First Nation communities in the Northern Territory and has since been evaluated in research trials in schools in Queensland. This presentation will introduce the program, the co-design process, and innovative strategies in implementing the program using a hybrid-flexible learning approach in supporting educators. Results from five studies on the mixed methods, multi-tiered evaluation methodology highlight the positive impact of the TIBS program, as well as the complexities of addressing the learning and wellbeing needs of children exposed to trauma. The findings will also shed light on university-school research partnerships that offer practical, feasible and sustainable solutions to the use of trauma-informed practices in the context of funding mandates related to NCCD. Finally, learnings from workings of the diverse, interdisciplinary team will be shared. The presentation will offer teachers practical strategies and free-to-use resources from the program in managing classroom environments, while offering educational leaders an insight into whole-of-school approaches to TIP. |
