Transition 2025

"Putting Every Student on the Path to a Happy, Successful and Fulfilling Life"

We are looking forward to welcoming our new Year 7 cohort in September 2025. 

If you missed our Open Evening in October, you can still arrange to come and visit our school and see it in action during the day.  Please contact the school office if you would like to arrange a visit. 

On this page, there is information to support the transition process and hopefully answer all those questions you have about starting at a new school. 

One of the main questions that Parents have is around school meals and the system we use for paying for food at school.  All new Year 7 students will come home with their log-in details in September.  

All of the information is sent to parents individually addressed to each student via their primary schools before the induction day in July.

All students are expected to come to school each day equipped for their lessons.  This includes bringing a large bag or rucksack that is suitable for school that can fit an A4 folder in.  Students should also bring a pencil case and equipment.
