PLAY IS THE WAY -
DELIVERING SOCIAL and EMOTIONAL LEARNING (SEL)
We call SEL, “behaviour education” and treat behaviour as a subject. We do not expect children to do well in it if they do not receive the appropriate and necessary education.
PITW uses:
- Five guiding concepts that serve as a moral compass and help children to do what they believe is right and best to do. When embedded, these concepts prevent children from drowning in life and learning – hence, they are aptly called Life Raft concepts.
It is our belief that personal and social capabilities must be addressed in all learning areas and at every stage of a student’s learning. This is only possible if students and teachers have a language, concepts and understandings that are applicable in all contexts. Play Is The Way sees social and emotional learning as a tide that floats all boats.
