The way in which we understand incidents and issues of racial harm informs how these issues are responded to in schools. This two-part training offers new ways of framing these issues, which leads to new approaches in ‘first aid’ responses and management of issues/ incidents.

Content includes:

  • understanding the range of racialized experiences that young people have and how they navigate these;
  • examining common school approaches (dismissive, punitive, corrective);
  • exploring trauma-informed responses;
  • rethinking intent and impact; working towards more restorative approaches for incident/issue management

Who should attend

Preferably two members of staff from each participating school, one of whom is a person of colour member of staff.

Pre-requiste - Racial Literacy 101

Course outcomes

A foundation of knowledge and understanding in order to begin conversations about ‘race’ and racism within the school
context.
