When the article was first published one of the sentences in the first paragraph of Page 9 was incomplete. The sentence has been corrected as follows:
As such, teachers teaching in the early primary grades are predominantly trained as primary school teachers with little knowledge or exposure to the use of early childhood development strategies, such as the use of play as a teaching/learning strategy.
The author apologises for this error.
