background

Archie was 15 years old when he was referred for Creative Mentoring. He had been out of education for a significant period of time and was shortly going to be starting at a new school. This would, of course, be a big change for Archie. The professionals around Archie hoped that Creative Mentoring would support him with this upcoming change by building his confidence, self-belief and encouraging him to explore his interests in a 1:1 setting.
