Is my child where they should be? Are they keeping up with their peers? And when should I genuinely be concerned?
From first words and reading to confidence, friendships and academic progress, it is easy to compare one child’s development with another’s. But milestones are not deadlines, and progress rarely happens at the same pace across every area of a child’s development.
Join us for a Coffee Morning exploring how to understand individual progress, recognise the difference between natural variation and areas that may need closer attention, and balance expectations with each child’s developmental needs.
We will also look at how comparison can shape both parental anxiety and a child’s own sense of confidence, and how we can support progress without placing unnecessary pressure on the journey.
