Our Year 6 students received a special visit from our Secondary Transition Lead, who hosted a welcoming assembly to help them prepare for the transition to secondary school. During the assembly, we shared what to expect in secondary school—new subjects, teachers, and activities— the session was interactive, allowing students to ask questions and voice any concerns. At Bloxwich Academy, we wanted to ensure that pupils really can be the best they can be. This is why we introduced our ‘Welcome to Bloxwich postcard’. Postcards have been sent to all pupils so they can ask questions, but also share what they are looking forward too. These questions will be answered in our next transition event in 2 weeks time. With a few months still to go before the transition, students will continue to be supported through a series of activities, including school tours, meetings with secondary staff, and other resources designed to ensure they feel confident when they step foot into their new school.
