Summer Transition work

english, maths, science and humanities booklets

By now, you should have received a summer work pack from us to your home address. These booklets have been designed to support your transition from Primary to Secondary and bridge any learning gaps.

The pack includes workbooks that were put together by the Heads of the Department for English, Maths, Science, and Humanities. You will have heard from a few of these in the transition videos, and they are very much looking forward to meeting you in September.

These workbooks should be returned to us on Friday, 4th September, your first day. If you haven't received these workbooks, please click on the links below and print off a copy.
