The final phase of our series addresses a key aspect of school readiness that's often overlooked - your readiness as a parent. Preparing for your child's first foray into formal education involves much more than buying school supplies and organising transport. This email will explore the emotional and organisational adjustments that parents can expect to navigate during this transitional phase.

Here’s what we’re covering this week:

  • The Parental Emotional Journey

  • Organising for School:

  • Establishing a Daily Rhythm

  • Communicating with Teachers

  • Taking Care of Yourself

This email will offer a comprehensive guide to preparing for your child's transition to school from the parental perspective, helping you to feel confident and prepared for the journey ahead.
