I am really not sure what will will be expected of DS1 (4 in august) when he starts reception in September. We are moving to England from Scotland in 2 weeks so he is now starting school a year earlier that he would have been. He has attended a year of pre-school here and is quite a chatty, confident boy so I think he will be okay socially but I am not sure what he will be expected to be able to do with regards to literacy, numeracy etc. I am also concerned about the fact that he has to wear a proper shirt with little buttons and he can't do them up by himself.
Any hints/tips on helping him prepare or ideas of expectations?
Thanks.
