Learning through play: The Sunday Breakfast show with Caroline Keep

This week I chat to Tilly Brooke @Tillybrooke_. Tilly is passionate about education and learning through play.  She keeps a sense of playfulness in everything she does and believes that work and learning should always be enjoyable experiences. This is why it brings a smile to her face that she is Chief Operating Officer at now>press>play.   Tilly sits on the committee for KLASP, a charity that provides a lifetime advocacy service for adults with autism or learning disabilities who cannot speak for themselves.
 
It's a fascinating conversation covering play, autism and noise in the classroom :)
