Supporting Parents and Early Childhood Services
SPECS recognises the important milestones in children's lives and in particular supporting smooth transitions for young children, such as those into preschool and primary school.
We work collaboratively with parents, early years practitioners and teachers to ensure every child has the best possible start in their educational journey.
