SELF-TAPING INSTRUCTIONS:

- For the videos, please record on any device you have - an iPhone/smart phone is great and normally easiest. Please make sure there is no background noise.

- Please could your child look as close to the camera as possible (down the lens is fine if that’s easiest).

- Please record the videos in a quiet, well-lit room against a plain, neutral background. Make sure we can see their face really clearly!

- Your child should wear whatever they like/feel comfortable in.

- Please film your child landscape, with their head and shoulders taking up the frame - see picture below as an example of framing:
