TRANSITION FROM THE JUNIOR SCHOOL TO SENIOR SCHOOL
As part of the transition process from Junior School to Senior School, families are invited to personally meet with our Head during the Autumn Term to discuss their child's interests, strengths and experiences ahead of their move into the Senior School.
Year 6 pupils will also take part in a Year 7 Experience Day, providing an opportunity to sample Senior School lessons, meet teachers and gain a deeper understanding of what to expect in Year 7.
Current Year 6 pupils are not required to sit assessments as part of their progression into Year 7; however, those wishing to be considered for an Academic Scholarship may choose to sit assessments in English and Mathematics. These assessments take place on a Saturday in January, with further details provided by the Admissions Team at the start of Year 6. Pupils may also apply for Sport, Music and Individual Brilliance Scholarships, following a similar assessment process to external applicants. Parents are asked to confirm their child's place in Year 7 in January, and the outcomes of scholarship assessments will be communicated at this time.
