The transition from primary to high school is an exciting time, full of new experiences for both parent and child. We work very hard to ensure maximum success for all our pupils so that they feel ready for the challenges of secondary school, enjoying new friendships and the new opportunities that secondary school brings.
To help with your child's journey we arrange a series of events:-
At the Y6 New Intake Evening, parents/carers receive practical information to help with the move up to secondary school.
At the Y6 Introduction Day, your child will meet their Form Tutor and following this, they will come into school for a series of 3 days to experience a 'trial run' before they join us in September.
