“Since completing the SchemaPlay training, I feel that as a professional I have enhanced and developed my own personal knowledge and understanding of how nursery children’s progress can be supported in a child-centred way, as a result of identified schemes and schemas. I have worked in Early Years for 29 years and this course has opened my eyes to a completely different way of observing children’s learning and capabilities. I now feel confident in identifying schemes, in identifying children’s lines of enquiries, their investigations, and my pedagogical knowledge is so much stronger. I am passionate about applying SchemaPlay in practice.” S. Kelly.

” Our whole team are scheme spotting now and we can see a huge change in children’s confidence, self-regulation and outcomes.”. Abi Styles

“We are seeing children enter into more ‘flow’ in their play, supporting better and more sustained engagement in activities. Children are leading their play and we are following up on their investigations. It is really good to seeing all children having agency in their play and learning.” Tom Andrews
