“In 2007, 55% of teachers were satisfied with the inservice they received related to working with students with special needs. By 2014, their level of satisfaction had dropped to 11%. Many studies note that ongoing, thoughtfully planned professional development is key to the success of inclusion.” (Jenkins and Yoshimura 2010; Konza 2008; Lupart and Webber 2012; Male 2011; Subban and Sharma 2005)
PLAY6S (Play-Success) provides inclusive, unique and interactive movement opportunities for children and youth of all abilities. Participants build their fundamental movement skills that increase in complexity in a playful and unique way.
PD and PLAY6S is professional development that comes to your school and grows your educational staff’s adaptive skills while providing creative and imaginative experiences for your students.
In a single day, we can grow the capacity of hundreds of students and dozens of educational staff. We reduce the barriers to the participation of individuals of all abilities by building capacity, confidence, and compassion of professionals in practice, through the provision of practical tools and education for adaptation and inclusion.
“Inclusion is a bridge we must build ourselves in order to successfully connect both sides. Value and respect for educators on one end, student diversity on the other. If we don’t connect both ends of this bridge, it will always be fragile.”
