School readiness: the power of words - CYP Now A recent survey of primary school teachers in England and Wales found that more and more staff felt that increasing numbers of children weren’t β€˜ready’ for school.

Thanks so much to @BPSOfficial and @cypnow for collaborating here, supporting solutions for all those that champion and advocate for our children. Reflecting on how we view and talk about children is an important priority for sharing how we support them πŸ’œ
