When Is a Child Ready for School? Starting Preschool and Moving to the Next Grade

Have you wondered when your child will be ready for school, or worried they’re falling behind?
What does research say about preschool: which kids need it, does development matter, and is there a “right” age to begin? What if your first grader is struggling with reading – will repeating a grade help?
Learn how early reading skills develop, why some children fall behind, what schools are supposed to provide for support, and what the research says about holding kids back. Here’s a clear framework for making these decisions based on your child.
