Level 5 Diploma in Leadership for the Children and Young Peoples Workforce-Early Years (Management/Advanced Practice) Unit 136 136.2,7 Through adult-led activities we can introduce children to new ideas, provide opportunities for them to develop their skills and ensure that they experience all six areas of learning in the EYFS. During adult-led activities we are in control of the teaching we are providing. However, what we cannot have any control over is what young children are learning from these activities. This is why it is important to balance adult-led activities with time and opportunity for children to explore their own ideas, play with resources and use their imagination and creativity. Through doing this and practising the skills that they have learned the children will be able to take ownership of their learning and be able to apply it in different situations.
The key strategic purpose of the teachers is to prepare lessons to impart information and make them as interesting as possible to keep children engaged and to promote learning by leading discussion and encourage participation.

Support staff roles refers to any school employee allocated to assist administrators, teachers etc. to address special needs within the school.

It is generally recognised as being an essential part in children’s growth and development. This understanding of play is the reason why play environments and activities are provided in the early years curricula and foundation stage. By providing this environment it encourages children to learn through play. Physical, cognitive, language, social and emotional development are all affected by play, which is why it is so important.
