We know that the start of the school year can be both an exciting but demanding time for students and their parents.

We've put together a list of tools and resources to help your family get ready for the new school year.

Back to school hub

The Back to School hub is helping families get back to school ready in 2023 with information,  practical articles, checklists, tools and ebooks.

Find out about back to school tips for families, download fun activity sheets to complete with your child, read about our health and wellbeing resources, or download a handy planner for the year ahead, and more.
