FOR COMMUNITY AND FAMILY SUPPORT ORGANISATIONS

Support for family hubs, libraries and other organisations supporting families

“Libraries play an important role in school readiness. They provide children with opportunities to develop early language, listening skills, concentration and a love of stories, all of which support a successful transition into Reception.

Working together has helped us give our new Reception families a positive start and has reinforced the message that supporting children's learning is a partnership between school, families and the wider community."
