Promote health and development review
The two to two-and-a-half-year health and development review should be offered to all families as it provides a crucial opportunity to identify children needing extra support before they start school.
Health professionals can help by:
- Mentioning the two-two-and-a-half-year review during 18-month vaccination appointments
- Reminding families with two to three-year-olds about the review at ongoing appointments
- Sharing resources such as, NHS’s website page on health and development reviews and NHS’s Start for Life resource.
