The BHT School Nursing Team, have created a series of news posts about helping your child get ready for school. These focus on communication, behaviour, wellbeing and toileting. Our Child Health and Well-being Assistants have also created this handy self checklist to help you focus on areas to support your child, so they can be ready to learn when they start school. Please download this for your own use to guide you over the summer months.
