A programme of transition activities designed to prepare and support year 6 pupils as they move from primary to secondary school.

Pupils are taught metacognitive skills to help their preparation for secondary school. They also complete activities such as timetabling and resilience building strategies to support their transition to year 7. Parental engagement is also a key part of the programme.

• Students successfully transition from primary to secondary school through learning soft skills and metacognition
• Parents learn information and guidance to feel confident supporting their child’s transition to secondary school

We have partnered with three local primary schools. These primary schools are the main feeder schools to our Key Stage 3 programme King’s Scholars. We aim to work with the same students from years 6-11 as much as possible. 

• St George’s Cathedral Catholic Primary School

• St John’s Catholic Primary School

• St James the Great

The programme runs during the summer term where sessions are delivered in school by staff and student ambassadors. Parents are invited to a graduation event and the annual Scholars Family Day.
