Transition Evenings and information

It was wonderful to see so many of our new families for our Transition days/evenings in the first week of July. You can find the key messages that were given out at the presentations attached at the bottom of this page. 

Action Your Potential

We were pleased so many of you were able to join us for the webinar in April that focussed on supporting your child with transition, if you were unable to join or would like to rewatch, you can do so: Year 6 Transition Webinar. 

As a school we work with Action Your Potential to help our children, parents, carers and staff learn all about the amazing brain. Andrew, and the team at AYP, have made a video course and some resources for Y6 children (and their parents and carers) looking at how to manage the brain's worry system and build great well-being as we prepare to move up to secondary school.

Getting Ready for Secondary School: Managing Challenge and Change (Video Course and Resources)

You can find the resource here. It is also available on the #NeuroNinja Learning Hub

You should find copies of all files required for the transition process attached to this page in due course. You will receive paper copies of these. If you can't find the files you need or require any further information, then please contact our Transition Administrator: vicki.pearson@shoreham-academy.org
