Back to School – Are you ready?

It is almost that time of year when the children start the new academic year. They are excited about the new class, new uniform, new teacher, new stationery, seeing their friends, and learning new things!!

It is a huge step and may not go to how you expect due to COVID19. Every School is trying their best to go smoothly; however, look on their website, they will have all the information you need.

It’s a significant milestone for the children and also their families. Remember, if you have any questions, don’t hesitate to contact the School or speak to their teachers.

Nursery to reception will need the most settling as children are young and not used to the set timetable that School has. A good tip is at home. You could get them into a routine. Invest in books that are about changes, schools and doing new things.

Year 6 to Secondary School, there will be so many new challenges new teachers, new layout, new rules, new people. As parents, you may be feeling anxious, but so are the children. So it is essential that you talk to them about how they think and that it is ok to feel that way as this is a massive transition for them.
