The origins of Self-Scaffolding go back many years, preceding its formal development as a framework.

The early observations developed alongside university study and practical experience in education, creating an ongoing interest in differences in learning and everyday functioning.

 

Over the following decade, this interest continued to develop through study, including academic research exploring the relationship between learning, movement, and development, alongside work in education and performance.

In 2025, these ideas began to take formal shape through the development of the concepts and models that became the Self-Scaffolding Framework.
