Playing for Equality, with Albert Potrony

Explore play and games as creative tools which can help us connect with each other, ourselves and new ideas, as well as promote equality.

Drawing on his extensive experience of facilitating child-led play in learning and gallery settings, Albert will introduce you to activities, materials and objects that can support non-hierarchical, non-gendered play environments in the classroom and beyond. You'll learn and invent inclusive, collaborative games which get everyone playing.

This session is open to Islington educators, with a focus on Early Years practitioners and those who work with families.
