Transitions

At Wrekin View Primary School and Nursery

We understand that transitions can be a significant milestone in a child's educational journey.

Whether your child is joining us for the first time, moving between year groups, or preparing to transition to secondary school, we are committed to making these changes as smooth and positive as possible. Our dedicated staff work with pupils and their families to provide the support and guidance needed during these periods.

For children transitioning into Wrekin View, we offer a comprehensive induction program. This includes orientation sessions, classroom visits, and opportunities to meet teachers and classmates before the first day. These activities help to ensure that every child feels valued, comfortable, and excited to begin their educational journey with us.

As children move between year groups, we provide structured programs to support these internal transitions. Pupils have the chance to spend time in their new classrooms, meet their new teachers, and participate in activities that build familiarity and ease any anxieties. Our teachers collaborate to ensure a seamless progression in learning, making sure that each child continues to build on their knowledge and skills year after year.

When it comes time for pupils to transition to secondary school, we implement a thorough preparation process. This includes information sessions, visits to secondary schools, and discussions about the expectations and opportunities ahead. We work closely with local secondary schools, who are part of our family of schools included in the Learning Community Trust, to ensure that our pupils are well-prepared academically, socially, and emotionally for the next stage of their education. For pupils with additional educational needs, we provide additional support and tailored transition plans to address their unique needs.

By fostering a supportive and nurturing environment, we help our pupils embrace change with resilience and enthusiasm, paving the way for continued success and growth. Our goal is to ensure that every transition is a positive and empowering experience for our children and their families.
