Pre-Service Teacher Preparation in Trauma-Informed Pedagogy: A Review of State Competencies
Leadership and Policy in Schools, v23 n1 p17-28 2024
Trauma-informed pedagogy recognizes childhood trauma and its influence on students' behavior, health, and ability to learn. By utilizing trauma-informed pedagogy, teachers can help children who have experienced trauma build resiliency. To determine if pre-service teachers are being trained in trauma-informed pedagogy, a systematic review of state-level teacher competency policies from all 50 states and Washington, D.C. was conducted. These teacher competencies were coded for the presence of elements of trauma-informed pedagogy. The review has shown that five states require teacher training in trauma-informed pedagogy and far more require training in individual elements, including social-emotional learning and cultural responsiveness.
