Welcome Year 6
Mrs Woan - Transition and Primary Links Leader
I am delighted to welcome you and your son/daughter to our website and to our School Community. You will find here lots of information about our school, and materials to help you to get a taste of who we are and why our community is so special. Please take time to watch the videos and to read our Transition booklet.
I lead a wonderful team who look after the transition of our new Year 7 each year and we will use this website to communicate to parents and children over the coming weeks and months. We work closely with your current schools to ensure that we are ready for your arrival and that we know each of you.
I look forward to meeting all of you and helping support you with your first steps in your Saints Peter and Paul journey.
Transition
All students are made to feel welcome, especially those transferring from primary to secondary school each Autumn.
Very strong links exist between our partner primary schools and our school, ensuring the fullest possible knowledge of the children and curriculum arrangements in each school throughout the year. Our comprehensive and supportive transition programme is designed to ensure that students who join Saints Peter and Paul CHS settle in easily and make friends quickly.
Throughout the school year we work closely with our primaries and many of you will have been involved in activities, here are just a few recent highlights
