The first years of your child’s education – from birth to the start of primary school – are often called the ‘early years’. In Scotland, the term early years is used to describe the period from pre-birth to 8 years old.
As a parent, you are your child’s first educator. You can make a positive difference to your child’s learning by supporting and encouraging them, and by making learning an enjoyable experience. Your support plays a vital role at all stages of your child’s education.
