A wide range of competencies are needed for a child to do well.  Developing the ‘whole child’ rather that a narrower skill set, is more likely to result in positive outcomes and high attainment. Tutoring children to pass a certain type of test can deliver short term benefits, but if a child is to be fully prepared for a successful adult life, then a more holistic approach is required.

 Eduscope has developed a model which provides a framework to support schools, settings and parents with whole child development.  A summary of this can be found here

 Eduscope can offer:

• Training for local authorities, schools, settings and families about the Eduscope Framework for Child Development and how to apply this to support children in their context
• Demonstration sessions promoting whole child development
• A report on how your setting can move towards a more holistic approach to child development
