The AoC counsellors and creative art therapists have worked with a variety of aged children. The therapists have a caring supportive nature and help the children to unlock their emotional and behavioural worries; drama therapy especially.

 

School complete individual referrals, then each child has an initial assessment followed by 6 weeks of therapy. Feedback is given from AOC (sometimes weekly), midway and at the end of the 6 week block; this gives the school the opportunity to support the child with the next steps. This could be nurture, further therapy or no further support is required. Parents have also met with the AOC about the impact of therapy, its outcome and future support.

 

School would recommend the AOC as it benefits all children living with emotional and behavioural worries. The feedback support they offer is so beneficial to the child as it gives guidance and future advice to support their development.  What would be ideal is that all children have the opportunity to experience AOC and the many ways they can support future development and positive life choices.”
