“We saw change within days and that’s a program worth keeping!”

Before Playworks there were a lot of conflicts at recess between students. Many arguments would come back inside the school with kids lined up in the office waiting for administrative staff to intervene, rather than being in the classroom learning. Even when students went back to the classroom there were outbursts between students.

Since Playworks, most days the office is empty after recess. This means academics aren’t interrupted; students go directly back to class without the need for conflict resolution by teachers or staff

The thing that is most surprising for me about Playworks is this: It didn’t take months, it didn’t take weeks, we saw change within days and that’s a program worth keeping!
