The HU9 Pilot: Trauma Informed Approaches in Education (Phase 2)

Report Summary

The Office of the Police and Crime Commissioner (OPCC) for Humberside is pleased to share the findings of a follow-up evaluation conducted by the University of Hull, exploring the impact of trauma-informed approaches in education within the HU9 ward of Hull.

Commissioned as part of a public health approach to preventing violence, the HU9 Pilot involved whole-school training delivered by specialist provider Time to Listen, alongside therapeutic staff support and policy reviews. The initiative targeted schools in communities with high levels of socio-economic deprivation and reported domestic abuse.

The Phase 2 report reveals significant organisational change at the participating primary school, with staff demonstrating increased confidence, compassion, and understanding of trauma. The school has been instrumental in fostering a safer, more inclusive environment for both children and adults, highlighting the importance of expert-led interventions in embedding trauma-informed practice.
