This study explores the experiences and knowledge of 27 physical education teachers in the United States regarding trauma and trauma-informed practices. The findings reveal that teachers utilize four dimensions related to trauma-informed strategies. Despite lacking educational experience and professional training, the teachers demonstrate potential in working with students who have experienced trauma.
In schools today, student trauma and toxic stress may impact students' ability to learn. Therefore, this inquiry explored the experiences and knowledge of 27 physical education (PE) teachers in the United States related to trauma and trauma-informed practices. Teachers' experiences were examined through semi-structured interviews informed by the literature. Employing interpretivist philosophical assumptions, data analysis revealed that teachers utilized four general dimensions related to trauma-informed strategies in their gymnasiums: creating a physically safe and emotionally safe space, formulating positive and healthy relationships with students, developing student responsibility, and guiding students toward self-regulation. These strategies aligned with Souers and Hall's (2019) tenets of fostering resilient learners. Although the teachers did not have prior educational experiences with trauma and trauma-informed practices and minimal professional development, they demonstrated what is possible when working with students who experience trauma and/or toxic stress. By fostering resilient learners and engaging in trauma-informed practices, it is conceivable for P-12 students to have positive and inclusive experiences in PE.
