    • Join Great Binfields Primary as they explain their journey to becoming an Attachment and Trauma Aware setting. Deputy Headteacher Michelle Holdsworth shares how recognising the increasing number of children and families in their school community who had experienced trauma and/or childhood ACEs led to the school re-examining and changing their approach to teaching and learning and behaviour and sanctions, and the implementation of relational practice across the setting. Michelle details Great Binfields' journey over the last three years and provides ideas and examples of strategies that may be useful for other settings looking to develop relational practice.
