Research shows an increase in children entering EYFS and KS1 with delayed language development, low confidence in oracy, and reduced social-emotional interactions. These gaps make the transition into schooling harder and limit children's ability to engage with learning. How can we strengthen early language during this critical school-readiness phase using evidence-based, book-centred strategies? Join Charlotte Raby for a webinar that explores how the Story Talk programme supports early language development and communication skills that will aid school readiness.
