🏫 Starting School: Skills to Practise Together
Getting ready for school is a big step for your child! Every child develops at their own pace, but practising simple daily skills together can help them feel more confident and independent.

💬 Communicating Wants and Needs

Being able to tell an adult when they need help, feel unwell, are thirsty, or need the toilet is essential for your child’s wellbeing at school.

💡 Tips to try at home:
• Help your child practise expressing their needs in the way that works best for them
• This might be speaking, signing, pointing to pictures, or using a communication device
• Support them to recognise and share how they’re feeling – “Are you thirsty? Tired? Worried?”
• Use everyday moments to practise, keeping it natural and pressure-free

🌟 Remember: Every child communicates differently. Whether they are verbal or non-verbal, and whether they use signs, symbols, pictures or devices – whatever works for your child is perfect.

📣 Let your child’s school know what works best so they can support them from day one.
