Most children will be potty trained at this age but some children can have ongoing issues or bladder or bowel conditions which might make things a bit trickier. ERIC's guide to potty training is a great resource if you’re not quite there yet or if you’re thinking of night-time training. ERIC have useful information for carers supporting children with additional needs in potty training.
If you have any questions about your child’s toileting, speak to your health visitor for advice and support before your child starts school.
