Transition Arrangements for Foundation Stage Pupils - Summer 2021
As the end of the academic year approaches we are keen to prepare our Foundation Stage pupils for the next stage in their learning journey. This year has brought unprecedented challenges but ensuring a smooth transition for your children into the next year group is definitely a key priority for us now.
This year, despite the current restrictions, we will do our utmost to ensure a smooth transition for our pupils and we have put together a new plan for transition which aims to provide you and your children with the information you need along with opportunities to alleviate any worries or any uncertainty in terms of what lies ahead for September.
The following table gives details of when you will receive specific information so you, as parents/carers, are aware of the process that is taking place.
