HOW AND WHAT WILL I LEARN?

This course is designed for parents who want to better understand how to help their children, particularly those with additional support needs, develop strong early literacy skills.

Focusing on the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS), the course explores the key developmental milestones for young children and provides practical strategies to bridge literacy gaps. Parents will gain insights into how children learn to read, write, and communicate, and how to create a nurturing home environment that supports this growth.

Through interactive sessions, you’ll learn techniques to encourage language development, build confidence, and support emotional and cognitive needs.

Whether your child is just starting their learning journey or is facing specific challenges, this course equips you with the tools and understanding to make a meaningful difference in their development.
