Ease the transition to school with our gentle, supportive, and fully customisable social story – designed to help children feel calm, understood, and ready to start school in their own way.
Starting school can be a big step – full of excitement, questions, or uncertainty. This Starting School Social Story was thoughtfully created to help children feel safe and relaxed, using visual structure, clear language, and a reassuring tone to gently introduce what school might look like.
Rather than telling children how they “should behave,” this story supports their individual experience — affirming their feelings and validating their needs. It’s designed to reduce anxiety and provide comfort, empowering children to approach school at their own pace.
The downloadable editable Word document allows parents, teachers, and therapists to personalise the content with names, routines, uniforms, and familiar images. Ideal for autistic children and others with additional needs, it’s also suitable for any child beginning their school journey.
