Secondary Admissions September 2020

The period of secondary school transition can be an anxious one and with our current circumstance being so unusual, it is likely that you and your child may have additional concerns.  Despite the uncertainty we face, I wanted to give you a brief overview of what the transition period will entail. 

 

As is usual practice, the Year 6 team have been liaising with your child’s secondary school regarding their learning behaviours, achievements, attainment and interests.  In addition to this, we have been holding transfer meetings, which involve a range of staff such as the Year 6 and Year 7 Leaders, SENCos and Pastoral leads.  The secondary schools will then use this information and any additional information you may have provided to begin to organise their year 7 classes.

 

Please see below for further information that secondary schools have shared with us ahead of your child's transition in September.  If you have any questions, please get in touch with their new school directly or with us.
