This book bridges the research-to-practice gap by providing clear, evidence-based strategies to enable and advance trauma-informed practices for teachers, school leaders, and student support professionals. Drawing on innovative research, this book explores key trauma-informed practice principles and their practical application. Core topics include a deep dive into the latest research about how trauma and stress impact children and young people in the education setting, including observable and invisible physical responses, relationships and attachment, learning and executive function, and interventions such as supportive policies, routine, music, and movement. Each chapter combines research insights with practical recommendations and real-world case studies, supporting educators in translating theory into effective practice. By explaining the what, why, and how of trauma-informed practices and policies in schools, this book makes the science and practice of trauma-informed education accessible, actionable, and meaningful. Comprehensive, evidence-informed, and deeply practical, this is an essential guide for school leaders, educators, and preservice students committed to building safe, supportive, and trauma-responsive school communities.
