School Transition and School Readiness: An Outcome of Early Childhood Development

Abstract

Researchers have been examining the topic of school transition and readiness for several decades. The recurrent questions emerge: What does it mean to be ready for school? How do different stakeholders prioritize different aspects of school readiness? What are the antecedents of school readiness? This short report summarizes evidence on the school transition and readiness with the goal of describing stakeholders’ definitions of readiness, characteristics of child readiness, and readiness as an outcome of early childhood experiences.
