Therapeutic Storywriting Groups use the metaphor in stories to support children whose emotional and behavioural difficulties are getting in the way of their learning. It may be that a pupil finds it difficult to express themselves as they are worried about what others will think or say, this could be linked to self-esteem or a social or emotional issues. Therapeutic Storywriting groups enable pupils to share their stories in a safe and managed environment enabling pupils to grow in confidence.
