It is great to see the “myths” being talked about here. There are so many misconceptions about when a child has to start reception class. Hopefully early years practitioners will learn from this article. Thank you to Pauline and Michelle.

What a great article-should be a compulsory read for all educational professionals! I am fortunate to have received a wonderful response for our head teacher about my son starting reception at compulsory school age but it shouldn’t be such a postcode lottery. I hope more professionals will take this information on board

Excellent clarity and detail in this article that should help EYP to be able to understand the issues and support parents in their right to give their child 12 years of equal education.
