Strengthen Early Learning Foundations Through Music
The School Readiness Toolkit is your ready-to-use resource designed to help early childhood educators, music specialists, and school leaders strengthen foundational learning skills through music. Whether you’re preparing children for school transitions, enhancing early learning outcomes, or building family understanding of music’s role in development, this toolkit offers a compelling, evidence-informed approach to early years advocacy.
What’s Included:
1 x Staff Development Activity
A ready-to-deliver professional learning session to build educator understanding of how music supports school readiness, including language, regulation, and numeracy skills.
9 x Shareable Research Bites for Staff
Quick, evidence-based messages ideal for newsletters, internal communications, or staff presentations to build a music-positive culture.
9 x Shareable Research Statistics
Powerful figures that speak to the measurable impacts of music learning, formatted for easy use in digital or print communication.
5 x Music Learning Helps Early Childhood Posters
Bright, research-backed posters for display in classrooms, foyers or early learning spaces, each focusing on a different school readiness outcome supported by music.
4 x Parent Handouts
Designed to clearly communicate the benefits of music in early childhood development, these handouts help bring families into the advocacy conversation.
How to Use It:
Use this toolkit to build staff capacity, inform family engagement, and elevate the visibility of music’s role in school readiness. Display posters in classrooms, use handouts during enrolment or orientation, include research bites in parent newsletters, and run the development activity in team meetings. This toolkit is ideal for early learning centres, transition-to-school programs, and school-based music initiatives looking to increase recognition and support.
Why It Works:
Parents and staff often understand that music is enjoyable, but don’t always know that it builds the cognitive, social and self-regulation skills that help children thrive in school. This toolkit bridges that gap with clear, research-based tools that position music as essential to early success.
Equip your early learning environment with the School Readiness Toolkit and start building stronger foundations, greater understanding, and deeper community support for music in the early years.
