  • talking lots
Consulting the following websites :

  • www.ican.org.uk (parents section)
  • www.thecommunicationtrust.org.uk

General Learning

We’re also extending this to every parent and carer in your school so your pupils can still have access to high-quality learning during any periods of disruption.

For emotional wellbeing and positive parenting ideas-
