SUPPORTING PLAY AND DEVELOPMENT
There are 16 known play types which help support the development of young people, with our Let’s Play programme every aspect of play will be covered in a variety of missions.
Our Commando Joe’s star encompasses the 7 core elements of play to promote social and emotional learning and build upon the foundations of R.E.S.P.E.C.T.
Play at breaktime is the main form of exercise for children and can contribute up to 40% of a child’s recommended daily physical activity. Let’s Play adds to this with mini-missions to promote physical, locomotor, social, creative skills and more.

“We are excited to introduce the Let’s Play programme, which is designed to transform school break time into opportunities for character-building and positive behaviours. In both Key Stage One and Two, 21% of the school day is dedicated to breaks, and Let’s Play aims to make this time more than just a pause in the day.
Our Junior Joe’s programme, targeted at upper Key Stage Two students, offers them the chance to take on responsibilities, assist younger peers, and develop their leadership and teamwork skills. This ensures that break times become exciting sessions that naturally integrate character development into school life.
By supporting Let’s Play, students will engage in activities that promote cooperation, responsibility, and positive interactions. This programme ensures that learning essential life skills is not only educational but also incredibly fun, contributing to a friendly and connected school community.”
