produce guidance on what constitutes play opportunities
work with children and others to develop standards for a wide variety of play provision
support development of training resources on play for teaching and non-teaching staff in schools
highlight opportunity for new play facilities provided by Community Focussed Schools
support development of new guidance for Local Authorities on community play provision
define a public benchmark of balancing risk against benefit of play
produce a handbook for parents on what constitutes quality play
commission research in Wales on psychological benefits of freely chosen play
