Gain an advanced understanding of how children learn and develop through play with our Master?s degree in Developmental and Therapeutic Play. You will explore evidence-based practice in play across a range of professional contexts, combining in-depth theory with fieldwork experience. This includes how the environment and social interactions support children?s growing repertoire of play skills, with a particular emphasis on the inherent value of children?s self-directed play experiences. Throughout your studies, you will refine critical research and analytical skills valued by employers and develop professional reflective practice techniques.
