School Readiness Course (4 weeks from 11th May 2022) Popley Fields CC

School Readiness: Nurturing Young Brains - this four week course is available to parents and carers of children aged 3 to 5 years.

Based on the Five to Thrive approach, along with the Ready Child, Ready Family, Ready School model, you will discover what you really need to know about a smooth transition to school.

The course expands on the topics covered in our 1½hr School Readiness Workshop, exploring in greater depth, the fascinating way in which your unique child develops, how you can support their learning journey and form an effective partnership with the school.

Starting school can provoke many questions, feelings, and emotions for you and your family, including:

• Will my child be physically & emotionally ready for school when the time comes?

• Do boys and girls learn differently and what influences them?

• How can I help my child to become more independent?

• What resources will my child need for starting school?

• How will I cope when my child starts school?

• Should I expect changes to my child’s behaviour, is that normal?

• How will the school help me and my family to settle and feel included?

N.B. This course is open to all parents and carers of babies and children registered with a Southern Health NHS Foundation Trust, Health Visiting team.
