This exhibition will draw upon the latest research findings to provide accessible guidance for schools and parents on the evidence regarding current ‘hot topics’ for parents of primary school children. These topics will have been identified in a prior event involving a dialogue between local educators and researchers.

Expected topics include: the benefits of risky play / outdoor play; strategies for promoting the thinking skills children need to succeed in the classroom and playground; developmental changes in children's memory skills / creating classroom spaces inclusive for neurodiversity.
