One day both children and parents will remember for the rest of their lives is their first spent at school.

Starting at school comes with excitement and stresses for children (as well as their parents) and a Guardian photography project aims to capture those emotions. We plan to document the first day of school by sending our photographers to meet some of the current generation of UK school starters in September – and to photograph them both before and after their first day.

How to get involved

If you would like your child or children to be involved, please fill out the form below. We will be in touch with as many willing respondents as we can in the coming weeks, so please provide contact details – these will remain confidential; our form is encrypted and only the Guardian has access to the data.
