This reflective Ready-Or-Not story takes a funny but painfully recognisable look at the politics of lining up in Reception. When “considerate and calm” turns into stealth manoeuvres and tears, the bigger question is: how do we support children’s social skills and emotional regulation when even the line order feels like high-stakes diplomacy?

Use this story as a tool for CPD or staff reflection. It’s perfect for sparking discussion about:

  • Helping children manage friendship dynamics

  • Encouraging flexibility when routines change

  • Supporting emotional regulation in group settings

A relatable, light-hearted story with serious professional value — because every teacher knows the child who always has to stand after their best friend.
