Conclusion

Skills can be developed effectively in students if these are fostered in a consistent way from early childhood to the end of second-level education continuing through life.

Early experiences support the development of various skills in individuals. The knowledge, skills, attitudes and dispositions developed in the early years have a significant impact upon their later learning experiences.
