In this episode of the My Word Speech Therapy Podcast, we're joined by our wonderful Key Worker, Laura, to chat all things school transitions—because starting primary school is a big step, not just for kids, but for parents too!

Laura shares her practical insights on how to support your child as they move from preschool into the world of primary school. We cover:

✨ What parents need to know ahead of the transition

✨ What your child can expect in the first few weeks

✨ How to ask the right questions to find out how their school day really went

Whether your child is starting school soon or you're planning ahead, this episode is packed with simple strategies and reassuring advice to help make the transition smoother for the whole family.
