It's one of the principles based on the Reggio Emelia approach...

I found the following:

The child as protagonist: children are strong, rich and capable. They have readiness, potential, interest and curiosity in constructing their learning. They use everything in the environment to help them. Children, teachers and parents are the central protagonists in the educational process.

Ref: Developing Play In Curriculum (Page 129)
