Growing up, one bite at a time.
Common possibilities for body, mind, feelings and school. Every child develops at their own pace.
Growing confidence in movement
Coordination and confidence with movement may grow, each at their own pace.
- 01Strong and quickStrength and coordination may develop through activities your child enjoys, including team games.
- 02Little handsWriting, crafts or music offer ways to practise fine movements. Choose a level of detail that feels manageable.
- 03First signs of pubertyPuberty begins at different ages. Make room for questions, rest and support as bodies change.
Abstract thinking shows up
Some children enjoy weighing ideas, giving reasons and tackling longer tasks.
- 01Abstract thinkingChildren may enjoy weighing different views and exploring what-if questions.
- 02Planning and self-controlBreaking a project into small steps can help children practise planning with support.
- 03Adult-style languageDebates and stories can offer chances to explore reasons, nuance and meaning between the lines.
Fitting in, finding themselves
Belonging and a growing sense of identity may bring new questions.
- 01Friends and groupsBelonging may matter more. Talk through group work, disagreements or peer pressure when your child wants support.
- 02Knowing themselvesA sense of identity may become clearer. Doubts and setbacks can still call for reassurance and practical help.
- 03Body image and self-talkComparisons with others may become more noticeable. Make room for concerns without judging appearance or ability.
Owning their own learning
Schoolwork may involve more planning, longer projects and a transition ahead.
- 01Real curriculum jumpDecimals, percentages, longer texts or planning may be useful to explore, depending on schoolwork and your child’s level.
- 02Leadership and teamworkA small role in group work can offer practice with organising and explaining ideas.
- 03Getting ready for secondarySome children want more say over homework and study time. Plan small routines together and adjust the support as needed.

Practising together offers a chance to recognise effort and talk about tricky moments.
Short lessons, real progress.
Short lessons
Your own pace
Start with a short lesson. Take breaks and choose a pace that fits your child’s energy and attention. Short lessons leave room for movement, play and rest.
