PACE refers to the approach we use when working with students who have experienced trauma or are dysregulated. Rather than a confrontational approach to behaviour, PACE requires that we are:  

• Playful (in our interactions when appropriate)  
• Accepting (of where the student is at and how they are feeling)  
• Curious (about why they may be feeling in a certain way or displaying inappropriate behaviour)  
• Empathetic (demonstrating real compassion for the student)  

 Through this approach we can develop trusting relationships with students, where they feel safe to accept guidance and challenge, resulting in improved outcomes.  

We have a number of Regulation & Engagement Support Workers across our campuses. Please meet the team below.
