Sparking curiosity through play: Enhancing critical skills in early years with EdTech

How can we nurture critical thinking, collaboration, and communication in the early years? This inspiring keynote explores how play-based learning, underpinned by a robust academic foundation, can unlock these essential skills in young children.

With educational technology as a supportive ally—not a substitute—educators can craft dynamic, play-rich environments that ignite curiosity, encourage teamwork, and strengthen communication. When thoughtfully embedded within purposeful pedagogy, EdTech becomes a powerful tool that enriches the learning experience for pupils while streamlining teaching for educators.
