Transition
EYFS to Year 1 Transition
Here is a film with some different resources to support the transition of children from EYFS to Year 1. It is called 'Everything Changes' and has been broken down into three sections, but please do feel free to stop it throughout to discuss with your child.
Everything Changes - Introduction
Everything Changes - The Story
Everything Changes - Goodbye and Follow Up activities
Secondary Transition
This section contains resources to support your Year 6 child as they prepare for Secondary School. You can use them in different ways:
- Your child can think about some of the tips they learn from watching the video clips.
- Ask them to make a checklist of things they think they will need for a school day.
- Ask them to think about and plan the things they might need to get ahead of starting at a new school. This could include: stationery, a planner, a calculator, etc
- They could think about and write down the tips they learnt about how to find their way around a new school.
BBC: Transitioning to secondary school
Starting Secondary School, a new campaign from BBC Bitesize aimed at 10-12 year olds, their teachers and parents, will shine a light on the great potential of starting afresh in secondary school and also offer practical advice and emotional support to help take the stress out of taking the next big step.
Young Minds have created a resource that reassures children that they’re not alone when it comes to their worries about secondary school, that there are ways to cope with change and there are people to talk to when things get difficult.
Secondary Schools
Children from Crown Lane go to a whole variety of different Secondary Schools. Please find below links to the different Secondary schools which our Year 6 children will be going to:
