Summary
This article reports the development of an instrument to measure initial adjustment to school, and its use to explore the differences between children with and without nursery experience. Those with nursery experience proved to have a better grounding for cognitive work in infant school, but there was no significant difference on emotional or social criteria of adjustment to school.
