Critics Review
This is a remarkable achievement. Like Batman’s Utility belt for teachers. So many practical, wise, inspiring, and achievable ideas are packed in here. I can imagine this becoming as indispensable for teachers as Gray’s Anatomy is for doctors… – Stephen Fry, English actor and comedian
If you want a book to assist with your work with traumatised children, choose this one. It is the best! This is the most comprehensive, accurate, and practically valuable guide for managing children made vulnerable by adversity which all teachers should have. The authors provide a beautifully written, well laid out, accessible and accurate understanding of a highly complicated area and go on to identify all (yes all) the problems that can arise in an educational context with a child who experienced adversity and trauma and offer explanations and practical solutions to support their management. The book is a remarkable and invaluable resource for all those working with children, from senior clinician to professional support staff.
– Professor Peter Fonagy, OBE, Chief Executive, Anna Freud National Centre for Children & FamiliesA must read for all teachers! The A-Z will empower and equip teachers to understand trauma and create the best possible environment for children to feel safe enough to learn. – Helen Fearn, Primary Teacher, Adoptive Mum, Foster parent, Therapeutic Parenting Coach and TrainerAt last, the ultimate, practical guide to understanding children and their behaviour. Humane and grounded in science, this book could change lives. Instead of punishing ‘naughty’ or ‘badly behaved’ children, teachers and others will get the tools to do their job, recognising the impact of trauma and other adversity, and enabling children to learn and to grow. – Sir Norman Lamb, Chair of Maudsley NHS and Children and Young People’s Mental Health CoalitionEvery person working in a School needs to read this book! By demystifying complex behaviour, this book gives readers the confidence to question ‘School-shaped’ approaches and the tools to build relationships based on trust, which is the key to meeting the needs of children affected by trauma. – Naomi Edmund, adoptive parent and former school nurseThe authors’ hands on experience of developmental trauma means the book is written with a lot of heart and the advice therein has real integrity. It is also written with an understanding for the lot of teachers trying their best to accommodate ever more complex needs in their classrooms. The result is a refreshingly succinct, accessible, informative read - one that parents and teachers alike should find immensely useful. – Nick Moss, headteacher, Minchinhampton Primary AcademyAbout The Author
