Play pedagogy/ play based learning in primary schools

We're waiting for D. Delaney to read a recent response and update the status.

Dear Glasgow City Council,

Please accept this as a Freedom of Information request.

Please could you provide the following information:

1. How many primary schools in the authority are currently (academic year 2021-2022) delivering play pedagogy in primary one?

2. How many primary schools in the authority are currently (academic year 2021-2022) delivering play pedagogy in primary two?

In the event of lack of clarity of what play pedagogy is, the Scottish Government has stated that children should access play based learning in primary 1 and 2. Here is an example of what was said:

"Play encompasses children's behaviour which is freely chosen, personally directed and intrinsically motivated. It is performed for no external goal or reward and is a fundamental and integral part of healthy development which seeks to improve play experiences for all children." ( Scottish Government, 2013b, p.14)

https://www.gov.scot/publications/play-s...

3. How many in total do you expect to use a play pedagogy approach in primary one in the next academic year (2022-2023)?

4. How many primary schools in the authority are currently (academic year 2021-2022) delivering outdoor learning as part of every day learning?

Thank you

Yours faithfully,

D. Brisbane

Dear Glasgow City Council,

Please pass this on to the person who conducts Freedom of Information reviews.

I am writing to request an internal review of Glasgow City Council's handling of my FOI request 'Play pedagogy/ play based learning in primary schools'.

A few years ago a similar Freedom of Information request was submitted and data was shared relating to number of schools delivering play based learning. Therefore it is not clear why the data is no longer available or how the data was previously sourced?

Thanks

A full history of my FOI request and all correspondence is available on the Internet at this address: https://www.whatdotheyknow.com/request/p...

Yours faithfully,

D. Brisbane
