Dramatherapy has been a fundamental intervention for some of our most vulnerable children. It has helped them to develop trust and open up about the barriers they face. Without exception they have changed as a result of the support and become more able to engage with their peers, adults and in learning. Dramatherapy has the power to transform the lives of children and young people and I cannot recommend this approach highly enough.

Providing professional supervision for those working with our most vulnerable children has been invaluable in supporting them to be outstanding practitioners and meet the specific needs of individuals and groups in our school. Having the opportunity for a confidential discussion with another professional about different approaches to cases, as well as the personal emotional impact of many, has enabled staff to more effectively meet the needs of the children. They are also able to manage their own needs and support others. Supervision is vital to support and protect the well-being of staff and those they work with.

I feel passionately that supervision is essential for senior leaders in schools. We constantly hold so much in our heads and are expected to be all things to all people when they need it. It is important that we have a confidential opportunity to give quality time to the issues that keep us awake night after night. Supervision has helped me to keep things in perspective and explore creative solutions to some of the problems where I haven’t been able to see the wood for the trees. I cannot recommend professional supervision highly enough.
