IRL PLAYground for Parents

IRL PLAYground for Parents extends the ecosystem beyond the classroom, interconnecting school, home, and community into a single learning fabric.

The platform recognises that learning is not confined to the school day. By linking teachers, parents, and local infrastructures, it creates continuity across domestic, educational, and civic spaces, allowing children to experience play and learning as part of a larger ecology of town, village, and city.

Closing the Gap

Parents are often excluded from the systems shaping their children’s education. At the same time, schools remain disconnected from the cultural and ecological realities of home and neighbourhood. IRL PLAYground for Parents bridges this gap by creating channels of transparency, dialogue, and shared responsibility across the whole learning environment.

Extending the Fabric

The platform provides direct connections with schools, making adaptive pathways visible and actionable for families. It offers insights into play-based learning that extend discovery from classrooms into homes, while also integrating with local contexts to tie learning to the infrastructures of villages, towns, and cities. Tools for dialogue enable families and schools to co-shape educational journeys together.

Home as a Node

IRL PLAYground for Parents positions the home as a critical node in a network of learning environments. By embedding education into everyday life and civic fabric, the platform demonstrates how technology can reinforce interdependence rather than isolation, turning learning into a shared activity across communities.
