Starting School
Starting school for the first time can feel like a big step for any child, but it is also a time to make new friends, play and learn. Our Starting School pages are full of tips, books, and resources to help children enjoy the new adventure!
Resources for Parents
Whether your child is starting at a new setting for the first time or starting at school, we know settling into a new environment can be difficult. But there are lots of things you can do to help your child feel safe and happy.
Resources for Teachers
Childcare professionals have an important part to play in helping to manage the transition to full-time education. We have a range of resources and advice on making the process easier.
