Starting Year 7 / Transition

How we support pupils making the move to secondary school.

From Year 6 to Year 7

The move from primary to secondary school is an important step. The Lewis School has a well-established transition programme to help new Year 7 pupils settle in quickly and feel at home.

Transition Activities

  • Visits to partner primary schools by The Lewis School staff

  • Taster days for Year 6 pupils at The Lewis School

  • Dedicated induction programme at the start of Year 7

  • Peer mentoring from older pupils

Every new Year 7 pupil is assigned to a form tutor who provides pastoral support throughout the year.
