IT USED TO BE CALLED PLAY - NOW IT'S CALLED 'COLLABORATION AND TEAM LEARNING'

                                                                               

Larger playground in prospect at Eastfield Primary Academy

PUPILS  at Immingham's Eastfield Primary Academy can look forward soon to having more space to let off steam in between lessons. 

The playground is set to be enlarged  after North East Lincolnshire Council granted planning consent earlier this month. 

Built 50 years ago, the school, which is on Margaret Street, is part of The Enquire Learning Trust portfolio. 

The school describes a playground as a "space for collaboration and team learning".

The Grimsby News says: Pupils used to be taught never to use two words when one would suffice. Unfortunately, it is a lesson unheeded by seniors at this primary school which has succumbed to the fad of pretentious  socio-babble. There's nothing wrong with the term 'play' - why dress it up as 'collaboration and team learning'?
