play is one of the most exciting and ambitious social enterprises in the edtech sector.

We developed a new way of learning that engages children through movement, imagination and emotion. Our vision is for every child’s learning to matter deeply to them, and our mission is to get children to live their learning : to go there, to do it and to feel it. We make the curriculum accessible for all children, regardless of background or academic ability. We do things with playfulness, care, imagination, integrity and inclusivity. Our ambition is to be one of the most engaging and highly valued educational resources in the UK and beyond. You can read more about our work and impact on our website : www.nowpressplay.co.uk.

Since launching our subscription service in 2014, we’ve worked with over 500 schools across the UK and internationally. The majority of these are in areas of high deprivation. We have high retention rates and consistently receive good feedback from teachers and children alike.
