We all knew, those of us who benefitted personally, or who worked in schools with links to sure starts, or worked in the system could see the benefits every single day. Lives changed forever, in a good way. The destruction of sure start was utterly shameful and driven by ideology

@iQuirky_Teacher @thepetitioner @Sue_Cowley @live_looper @Ara314413 @PeteMoorhouseEY An x ray of a developed hand (around the age of 7) compared to an EYFS age child’s hand is pretty informative. Also occupational therapists issue fantastic advice on how to develop handwriting in an age appropriate way matched to children’s physical development.

So today I was asked if after I’ve finished my degree in Early Years if I was going to go on and train to become a proper teacher 🙄 I love early years and can’t believe people don’t understand it’s importance!

Yesterday we wrote to @GavinWilliamson to ask that children’s play and their mental health be prioritized over the coming months. RT if you agree!

@mbrussoni @EllenBSandseter @StorliRune @olesando Thank you for sharing this. I’m currently attempting my first literature review on outdoor play and the benefits of risky play, for my early years degree and think this will definitely be helpful.
