School where gaming is core curriculum

Just came across this school while looking up stuff on LARPing. Here LARPs (live action roleplay) are a core part of what they do. Every week they play some alternative universe type game which helps them learn https://osterskov.dk/oesterskov-in-english/ Easier if you’re boarding and only have 90 pupils. But it’s an indicator of how some institutions have really adopted playful learning in a big way.

For a discussion on LARPing here’s an episode we did https://www.pedagodzilla.com/how-does-metacognition-enable-people-to-be-the-heroes-in-dystopian-larp/ Soon to be a book chapter, I hope.
