Since when is sitting still a key criteria for a 4 year old @bphillipsonMP ? Does sitting still mean they’re listening? Children need to move more now - with the rise in sedentary lifestyles and childhood obesity. Active learning and healthy living need to be prioritised.
Non-statutory KS1 SATs has opened a door for playful pedagogy to be further developed in Years 1 and 2. I am excited to move our playful provision into Year 2 next year. #playfullearning #playfulpedagogy

In this 2017 lunchtime webinar, @EdBaines1 from @IOE_London discusses social play and interactions during school breaktimes.
This draws on a national survey of school breaktimes, children’s views on school breaks & their social lives in & out of school.

Just heard someone on the radio saying ‘they just need to accept what they got and get back to work’. After seeing most of my staff work a 70 hour week, teachers definitely do deserve more.

A few myths to dispel:
1. Teachers are not paid for the holidays.
You read that right, teachers are not paid for the holidays. They could be classed as TOIL for the unpaid overtime they routinely do, but actually they are just not paid (despite many working, prepping etc.).
