Graduation Trauma: A Neglected Concept in Education
“Graduation Trauma”, a concept borrowed from nursing, describes the emotional and cognitive strain experienced by graduates as they take on full professional responsibility. In education, this manifests in rising attrition rates, stress, and disillusionment among early career teachers and support staff. Without sufficient scaffolding or transitional support, many new educators leave the profession in their first few years, resulting in a significant loss of talent and continuity for schools.
