Supporting your child's learning

Children benefit most from early years education and care when parents / carers and settings work together in partnership.

Our aim is to support parents / carers as their children's first and most important educators by involving them in their children's education and in the full life of the setting.

• talk and read together
• talk about how they feel
• praise them if they do well
• practice reading and numbers in everyday life e.g. telling the time, using money
• encourage involvement in groups and activities in the local area

The Education Scotland website offers useful resources for supporting your child, including Curriculum for Excellence, Every day's a learning day and Pre Birth to Three.
