Trauma-informed practice in schools has become a critical framework for helping students who have experienced trauma feel secure and supported in their learning environments. At Hear and Learn, we understand the importance of creating calmer classrooms, and our voice lift technology, also known as soundfield or soundfield amplification systems, plays a significant role in achieving this goal.
Though we are not experts in trauma-informed practices, our audio solutions are designed to complement these frameworks by enhancing the learning experience for all students, particularly those who have experienced trauma. Feedback from educators using our Redcat technology highlights its impact on creating more relaxed and supportive classrooms.
One principal noted that Redcat helps teachers maintain a calm atmosphere, which is essential for trauma-informed practice. The system eliminates the need for teachers to raise their voices or strain them when speaking for extended periods, creating a calmer classroom that benefits both students and teachers.
Research shows that students who have experienced trauma often struggle with memory, attention, and language processing. For these students, school can be a stressful environment. By integrating our audio technology into the classroom, teachers can create a more stable and predictable learning space, allowing students to focus and engage more effectively.

As part of our commitment to understanding and improving learning conditions, we’ve interviewed teachers in our ‘TeacherTalk’ series. Melbourne-based educator Amy Farrell described Hear and Learn technology as an “amazing tool” for creating calmer, more supportive classrooms. Check out Amy’s interview below.
