We know that home life has a big impact on educational attainment - so if a child comes to school without having had a good night’s sleep, or if they start the day on an empty stomach, this will have a negative effect on their ability to learn.

Together, we have produced a series of leaflets aimed at supporting parents, pupils and teachers to work together to ensure young people get the very best from their time at school. You can download the leaflets here:

• Getting the most out of school
• Speaking and Listening
• Giving your child a helping hand
