It is of paramount importance that children of all needs take time out and experience self guided 'play', just as an employed adult has their self guided lunch break 'playtime'. It is highly innapropriate and misguided for this practice to continue. Spare a thought for the childrens needs rather than meeting a criteria set by those who obviously lack an understanding of child development.

I also know the importance of recognising every pupil as an individual with their own personality, creativity and valued opinions. Deacons School promoted this opinion too.
I fail to understand how 'working these pupils like pack horses' all day with NO breaks, fresh air and freedom with enhance school life for anyone least of all the pupils
