Episode Synopsis

BBC Teach has released new resources that deal with trauma-informed approaches for care-experienced children. In this episode of HEP Talks, Luke Kemper talks with Andrew Tomlinson, former Head of Content and Commissioning at Bitesize and BBC Teach, about what inspired the BBC Teach team to commission the resources and ways in which schools can use them.
The resources themselves include "three teacher training videos explore what it means to educate and support care-experienced young people through a trauma-informed approach." They also include real testimonies from care-experienced young people in the form of "three short animated films explore stories of care-experienced and adopted young people, told by the young people themselves."
