About this listen
In this week's episode of 'Pondering Play and Therapy' with Philippa, the guest is Charlotte Booth, the owner of Leek Play Hub and former senior lecturer at Manchester Metropolitan University. Charlotte recounts her extensive career in education, from teaching early years groups to becoming a senior lecturer, and her recent transition back to working directly with young children. The conversation delves into the changing landscape of teaching, the impact of political decisions on education, and the importance of maintaining a focus on play in learning. Charlotte also shares insights into her current roles, both as a teaching assistant in a nursery and as the founder of the Leek Play Hub, a space designed to foster interactive and imaginative play for children and their caregivers. They discuss the challenges and rewards of setting up the play hub, the effects of technology on children's playtime, and the significant role of play in child development.
