This course will equip teachers with theoretical and practical ideas for supporting children in schools when they are encountering difficult times. Students will consider the impact of trauma, bereavement, bullying, parental drug misuse, and abuse/neglect on the lives of children. Students will explore how such challenges impact on children’s family life and education and learn about school-based initiatives which offer protective structures and build resilience. Students will learn to participate in and lead care teams and will learn about appropriate referral procedures including referrals to Tusla.
