## Commissioned Services 

## **Annual report** 

Cheshire Play Therapy have continued to prioritise the mental health needs of children and young people by continuing to provide a wide range of much needed services.  Play & Creative Arts therapies still remain as our core practices we have been proud to be able to offer a range of other services too, such as: 

- Trauma focussed CBT 

- Attachment focussed family services (PCAP) (Filial) 

- Sensory integration support 

- Group therapy with specific focuses 

- Drawing & Talking 

- Clinical Supervision – enabling us to offer more effective support to staff and fellow therapists. 

We have noticed an increase in referrals for anxiety, school refusal and OCD traits, all of which the parents and carers feel have been evoked in the first instance by the pandemic.  The team has continued to offer a bespoke and flexible approach in order to meet the individual needs of each child referred.  For several families strategies were shared with parents/carers which meant that some children didn’t need to access Play Therapy sessions, and therefore other children could be seen instead.  Similarly, because the Play Therapy team has good communication with teaching staff, therapists often make suggestions for strategies/activities/resources which indirectly supports children without them ever needing a formal referral to the service e.g. therapists have shared activities and resources with ELSAs and SENDCOs. 

## **Data and Analysis for 2022-2023:** 

|School:|Number of<br>sessions:|
|---|---|
|AstburySt Mary’s|44|
|Black Firs|80|
|BosleySt Mary’s|60|
|Castle|44|
|Daven|60|
|Mossley|96|
|Smallwood|44|



An overview of the referrals received is detailed in the table below showing the differences in number of referrals for boys and girls.  This year has seen an increase of children referred to the service.

|SCHOOL:|NUMBER OF REFERRALS:|GENDER:|GENDER:|
|---|---|---|---|
|||MALE:|FEMALE:|
|Astbury St Mary’s|5|4|1|
|Black Firs|6|2|4|
|Bosley St Mary’s|6|4|2|
|Castle|3|1|2|
|Daven|5|3|2|
|Mossley|15|11|4|
|Smallwood|5|3|2|



## **Monitoring Children’s Progress: Goal Based Outcomes (GBO)** 

When a child is referred for Play Therapy parents/carers and children set an individual goal based outcome (GBO) which they score out of 10; this GBO is revisited at the end of therapy and a new score is set.  The difference between the start and end scores indicates whether the child has made positive, negative or no change.  This score is assessed alongside qualitative feedback offered by school staff and parents/carers to ensure the GBO offers an accurate reflection of the changes that have been observed.  Goal Based Outcomes are recommended by CAMHS Outcome Research Consortium (CORC) and have adaptability which enables them to be used: 

- Across a broad range of interventions 

- In a variety of settings 

- With a diverse range of service users 

- Flexibly to acknowledge different types of ‘change’ 

This year 80 children have completed their processes with 79 children demonstrating positive change and 1 child having experienced no change; for this individual child referrals were made  to Early Help and  CAMHS  for further assessment, however the parent reported feeling more confident in managing symptoms having discussed coping strategies with the therapist.  There are 7 children continuing their therapy in September 2022, as such their final GBOs are not yet known. 

|Positive Change:|Negative Change:|No Change:|Children continuing<br>in September|
|---|---|---|---|
|**79**|**0**|**1**|**7**|



## **Group Case Study:** 

Cheshire Play Therapy has delivered a number of groups this academic year, this can be a cost-effective way of meeting the needs of larger groups of children if deemed appropriate. Groups delivered this year have included selfesteem, emotional regulation, social skills and transition to high school. 

A group of year 6 students attended a series of sessions with a focus on transition to high school. The group initially presented as being very shy but as sessions progressed increased in confidence and engaged with enthusiasm. Using metaphoric play and open-ended discussions the group explored many topics including: 

8 



- Identifying negative and positive self-talk 

- Challenging their own negative self-talk 

- Understanding how hormones impact on their brains as they grow 

- Understanding the areas of the brain that are very active during puberty (impacting their behaviour) and that some areas are not developed until later life 

- Identifying personal coping strategies for strong emotions including anger, sadness and anxiety 

- Identifying people they can talk to when struggling emotionally 

Following the ending of sessions all participants reported feeling more comfortable and confident with regards to moving on to high school.

## Collaborative Working 

The Partnership’s prides itself on strong collaborative working with schools and colleagues to improve learning outcomes for the pupils.  We embrace challenge to ensure the children and young people in our community have access to resources and opportunities to support them in reaching their potential. The Partnership ensures its success continues, by championing our mission statement that, as a TEAM, ‘ _**Together Everybody Achieves More’**_ . 

## **Collaboration across the schools** 

This year has demonstrated that working together and supporting each other is vital, not just in terms of teaching and learning and continued professional development but also for the mental health and wellbeing of colleagues and the children & young people in our schools and community. 

The past 12 months have included the following benefits for our colleagues: 

- **Network (both face-to-face and remotely) for both professional and personal support:** Headteachers continued to meet regularly to share information and to offer guidance and support to each other.  The feedback received was that these meetings were unvaluable and provided a platform for headteachers to have an informal discussion with colleagues in a similar situation. 

- **Partnership Meetings:** Trustees/Directors’ Meetings, SENDCO Meetings, EYFS Group Meetings, Sports Partnership, School Direct Student Network Meetings and some Subject & Year Group Meetings met to discuss shared practice and moderation sessions. 

**Continued professional development and collaborative working as identified by the partnership schools including:** 

- ❖ **Literacy Co-ordinators** continued writing network/project meetings and attended a session with the poet, Harry Baker. 

- ❖ **Y2 staff** attended Writing Moderation Meetings 

- ❖ **Y6 staff** attended Writing Moderation Meetings 

- ❖ **31 staff** attended a twilight session delivered by the ADHD Foundation 

- ❖ **32** staff attended a twilight session on ‘behaviour’ delivered by Springfield Special School. 

- ❖ **10 staff** were trained in Emotional Literacy Support Assistants (ELSA) 

## **Broader and richer curriculum activities this year included:** 

A continued annual calendar of Sporting Competitions across the primary schools.  These events continue to bring partner schools together, to share positive experiences - foster a sense of pride and community, as well as support the health & wellbeing of the children & young people in our schools.
