Event Details
Traumatic and adverse childhood experiences hinder a child’s ability to feel safe and therefore learn well. Neurobiological research has found that trauma impacts brain areas associated with cognition, memory, and learning. Trauma jeopardises our brain health, which translates to academic difficulty as well as problems with school and developing healthy relationships.
In this webinar Carrie Harrop from Trauma Informed Consultancy Services (TICS) will present the impact of trauma on learning and give delegates tools to create new perspectives for students from care backgrounds to learn well.
Guest Speaker

Carrie has co-designed interventions to enhance skills, confidence, and mental well-being during this critical phase. She leads innovation evaluation initiatives and has published research while securing significant funding awards. An experienced international presenter, Carrie also holds advisory and leadership roles, including with the International Foster Care Organisation.
