Piaget (1936) states there are four stages of development for learning in his theory. The very first stage of this is The Sensorimotor stage. At this stage children and infants will develop their learning by their sensory experience. They use their sensory experience to build on their knowledge and education.

(Bruner 1956) developed the first stage of learning called Enactive which is based a lot on physical movement where we learn through this. The Iconic Stage which is between the ages of 1-6 years. At this stage we learn things through images and remember things through images in the brain. The final stage of this theory by Bruner is called The Symbolic Stage which is from 7 onwards. At this stage people begin to learn through abstract thinking. This means, for example, if there was a problem, a person at this stage wouldn’t just look at the situations that caused the problem in there here and now but would be able to look at things in the past etc that may have affected things to this day which could have caused this
