Transition
We understand that the transition to secondary school can be a challenging time for both students and their families. It often involves adjusting to a new environment, managing increased academic expectations, and building new friendships, all of which can feel overwhelming. At this important stage, we want to offer support that makes the process smoother and less stressful. By listening to your concerns and working closely with schools, families, and students, we aim to provide the right guidance, resources, and reassurance to help every child feel confident and ready for this next step in their education journey.
We are providing a booklet from the charity YoungMinds that aims to help support you during the lead up to transition.
Also, during our time together in our final term we will also being exploring the transitional booklet kindly provided by Barnardo's, which we will then provide here online for you to look at.

USEFUL INFORMATION & RESOURCES
Spelling Words & Spelling Rules
We will be using the Year 5 & 6 and Year 3 & 4 statutory spelling words at school in our writing.
To practise at home, have a look at the following lists and some useful Spelling Rule cards.
During the last few years, the SATs spelling test words have been chosen using the 'spelling rules' and only a few of the statutory words... SO PRACTISING THE SPELLING RULES IS IMPORTANT!
Can you remember what all the GRAMMAR terms are? If not, look at these glossaries to remind yourself!
