The report explores trauma-informed training availability and needs of English for Speakers of Other Languages (ESOL) practitioners in Wales. ESOL learners come from diverse backgrounds, including refugees and asylum seekers who may have experienced complex trauma. It is essential that ESOL providers are trained to provide valuable support to these learners. The report presents findings from interviews with ESOL practitioners across Wales, exploring their training experiences and identifying additional training needs. The report’s recommendations focus on enhancing trauma-informed training availability and delivery in Wales. The report is designed for ESOL practitioners and policymakers interested in trauma-informed approaches to teaching.
