General Transfer and Transition Information

Primary to Secondary Transfer and Transition

Before you make your application, consider the following actions:

  • Talk to your child - Find out what is best for them.
  • Visit the schools that interest you - Attend Open Days, talk to Headtechers and staff.
  • Consider how your child will get to school.
  • Don't listen to gossip - What is right for other children may not be the same for your child.
  • Do your research - Look at exam results and Ofsted reports.
  • Read the school prospectus - available from the school.
  • How realistic is your school choice? - Look at the admissions criteria and cut off distances for each school.
  • Talk to the School Admissions Team.
