INFO:
I’ve got the answer. More and more of our children are becoming school refusers, becoming extremely dysregulated in and out of school and struggling in a school system that is no longer fit for purpose. I am seeing a huge rise in the number of children needing nurture provisions, play based therapies and referrals to CAMHS. What do they need? Play! Play helps children to regulate, process and learn. Why do we squeeze this out? If children all had protected time to play (not just on the playground) and we could truly prioritise children’s developmental needs and not academic results. I can guarantee less children would be needing this additional support as their needs would be met in the playful environment. (Side note the academic results will come too when children are allowed to flourish through play!!!) ➡️ Save this to come back to quickly ✅ Like or comment on this post to show your support & let me know your thoughts ❤️ Share to your stories to spread the power of play or tag a friend below who may also love it! 🤩 Shop playful learning products for ages 0-8 years via the website www.mymummyteacher.com ➡️ I’m Ruth, a mum of 2, educational consultant and former deputy headteacher who is passionate about PLAY!
