The National Theatre has announced its Let’s Play programme is now free to all state primary schools across the UK.

The programme pilot was launched back in 2017, but the National Theatre is now offering it to all state primary schools for free to enable more teachers to use theatre, drama and creativity in support of learning across the curriculum.
 
Let’s Play offers learning resources and training opportunities for primary school teachers covering three key areas: using theatre and drama to support learning (Let’s Learn), creating performances in schools (Let’s Perform) and watching high-quality theatre productions with related resources through the National Theatre Primary Collection (Let’s Watch).
 
For the first time, Let’s Play is also offering free online and in-person professional training for teachers to help them reconnect with their own creativity and develop new skills.
