Year 6 Transition
Welcome Y6 pupils, Parents and Carers,
Transitioning to secondary school is an exciting milestone, although it can also feel a little daunting for some students. At King James’s School, we are proud to offer a transition programme that is engaging, supportive and designed to help every student feel confident and well prepared for life at our school.
Over the coming months, we look forward to getting to know the newest members of our school community and supporting them as they prepare to join us in September.
This page will be updated regularly with helpful information for pupils, parents and carers ahead of the new academic year. If you have any unanswered questions in the meantime, please contact us at y6transition@king-james.co.uk
