Here, I want to explore the headlines from the report - Are you ready? Good practice in school readiness - as I see them. I would recommend you also read the report yourself.
In early years we have been familiar with this term for a little while now. It is one of many aims of early learning for preschool children. We aim to ensure that as children join us at age two or three, we equip them in their transition into school and into adulthood. We often share a child's first experiences of being separated from their parents, interacting with non-family member adults, taking turns, and making new friends. We can introduce families to books, positive behaviour management skills, and safe boundaries and risk-taking, and a whole range of new opportunities socially, educationally and economically.
