Hawksworth Wood Primary School

Before potty training starts, children need lots of chances to learn. Children learn best through practice and repetition, with help and support from adults. Introducing the potty from early age helps to encourage readiness for potty independence and moving on from nappies.
Potty / toilet training is one of the topics that we will be discussing with you at your child's development reviews at both 8-12 months and 27 months.
You can also find lots of helpful tips on the ERIC website:
