primary school until the
age of twelve.

required standards for Literacy and
Numeracy when they leave primary school

they leave school
- Partnership working with parents
- In Ireland it is fundamental that there is parent partnership in schools, parents are encouraged
to come and look at their children's work and also help their children with their development
within the school. practitioners in schools share the curriculum with parents so that parents
know what areas are important for their child to develop so that the parent's can help their
child develop these areas at home aswell as at school
