STARTING RECEPTION
Your child's journey to school
Starting Reception is an exciting milestone for children and their families. With National Offer Day taking place in April, many parents begin thinking about the transition to school and how best to support their child for this important next step.
We are proud to work in partnership with our families to help every child feel confident, capable and ready to thrive from their very first day in Reception. To support you, we recommend exploring Starting Reception — a free, practical online resource designed especially for parents and carers. It offers simple activities, helpful advice and clear guidance on the key skills and daily routines that help children feel prepared for school life.


We encourage families to work towards their child being toilet trained ahead of starting school, as this can help them feel confident and comfortable in their new environment. You may find the Potty Training Guide helpful, as it offers practical tips and advice to support your child in becoming school ready.
