When adults ‘plan’, learning, with all its possibility, is limited. The roar of children’s voices in all its infinite-ness must be at the heart of all we do... physicality, collaboration, negotiation, risk, science, mathematics and above all else - joy

Our self-evaluation form will be disappearing from 1 April. It's not compulsory now - and in future early years inspectors won't ask to see it completed. Here's more on this: https://t.co/pnrA3PNzA0

Something amazing happens when we give kids free rein with drawing tools. Don’t you just love the vitality of their artwork? #playfuldrawing #exploring #enthusiasm #creative #homeeducation #sketchclub
