Transition

Introduce your students to secondary English and help to ease the transition from primary school with our selection of creative and engaging resources, icebreakers and getting to know you games.

Educational research tells us that a successful transition from primary to secondary involves students feeling a sense of belonging to a school, and being academically and behaviourally involved. We know too that helping students to become resilient, autonomous learners matters, and concentrating on building strong relationships and communication with students and between peers can really help too.

You'll find a range of resources to warmly welcome new year 7 students below. Simply choose from the topics below. You may also like our eBook, 20 ideas for transition and our CPD webinar by headteacher Dave Harris on Seven steps to a great transition.
