Transitioning Between Schools or Settings

For children and young people transitioning from one learning environment to another it can be an exciting time and sometimes a challenging step. Children usually have their own views about school, so it is important they feel that their opinions are listened to along with everyone else; for example, staying with current friendship groups may be important to some children, but not to all.

Parents and children can feel some anxieties about the move to a new school setting and it can be helpful to prepare for the transition by thinking about the individual needs of your child and how you can prepare them for the transition.
