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 Young Minds that aims to help support you during the lead up to transition from Year 6 to Year 7:
Also, during our time together in the final term we will be exploring a transitional booklet kindly provided by Barnardo's, which we will then provide here (online) for you to also use at home over the Summer break.
