Student Learning During Transition
The Transition to Year 7 is an important time for you and your child. While this process can be daunting, it is an important moment in your child’s life and one that they will remember for the rest of their lives.
During the transition process, we aim to ensure that students continue their learning journey during the gap between primary and secondary. We want students to thrive in their first steps into a very different setting that may be very daunting for some students.
As part of the transition process, students will have the opportunity to take part in a 'Summer school'. This is a time where students can get to know the academy, its leaders and teachers as well as experiencing what life is like in secondary school.
This is also a time for you as a parent to ask questions about some of the differences and similarities between primary and secondary school and what you can expect from the academy both during the transition process and when your child arrives with us on their first day.
During the transition period, we will provide weekly resources for your son or daughter to work on, including work that students can be completing during the summer to ensure they continue their learning journey. This work will be provided after students have completed their SATs exams.
