The Forget-Me-Not Guide to Starting School is a free resource for parents of all school starters in England.  It is distributed via infant/primary schools in May/June each year.

This guide is an invaluable source of information and advice.  Written in conjunction with parents and teachers, it is designed to help parents ensure their children get off to a flying start at school.  It covers key areas such as:

a)  Preparing children for their first day.
b)  The Early Years Foundation Stage and the National Curriculum.
c)  Homework and supporting learning at home.
d)  A healthy lifestyle for all the family.
e)  How to deal with potential problems such as bullying.
f)  The parents’ perspective – returning to work, lifelong learning etc.
 

A great oppotunity to work in partnership with parents!
