Özet:

In this study, the knowledge and experiences of teachers working in schools regarding the traumas experienced by children were investigated. The study group of this research, which is based on a qualitative research design, was determined by purposive sampling and consists of 88 teachers working in secondary and high schools. The thematic analysis method was used in the analysis of the data. As a result of the analysis, four main themes and many sub-themes were determined, which represent the knowledge and experience of teachers about trauma, the effects of trauma on the teacher's life functions, obstacles to trauma intervention, and recommendations for the future. As a result, it was observed that teachers had significant educational and equipment deficiencies in both trauma knowledge and trauma intervention, as well as having experiences with student traumas. As a result, it can be said that increasing the knowledge and intervention skills of teachers about trauma will be an important approach.
