Ds's primary school nursery has a 2.5 hour session. All but the last 15 mins is free play where they can choose to join an activity or not and then the last bit is a story. Is this unusual...I thought it'd be a little more structured - not necessarily learning stuff but teacher-led activities.
For some children I appreciate that free play is better but for ds I think he'd prefer activities as it is a bit less chaotic and he is a sensitive soul.
Just wondering if this is the norm at all preschools or the mix is normally more 50:50 of activities that are done altogether vs. free play.
