Welcome

Transition

Transition from primary to secondary school can often be a worrying time for student and their parents.

Ensuring students settle quickly into their new surroundings, whilst continuing to make good progress with their learning, can often be incredibly challenging. We work closely with our feeder primary schools to ensure that we offer the very best transition programme for all of our students, helping to make the move from primary to secondary school a smooth and exciting one. 

Transition Programme 

Our programme of transition events includes: 

• Visits to all feeder primary schools by our transition team. 

• Year 6 students invited to SPA to experience Maths and English lessons. 

• A Year 6 Parents’ Event. 

• Transition days . 

We also offer an enhanced transition programme for students who might need extra support.  

We will be in touch soon but if you have any specific concerns, please contact one of the transition team.
