Transition

Headteacher
Mr. S Richardson

We are looking forward to meeting you, and hope that you are ready to meet us, too.

Welcome to our prospective Year 7 students! We cannot wait for you to join our thriving St. David’s community. We know that you are probably feeling a mixture of emotions; nervous about moving to secondary school, excited about meeting new friends and learning new subjects but also a little apprehensive about settling in. Please do not worry, we know that starting secondary may be daunting, but we will make the transition as smooth and comfortable as possible.

Hopefully most of you will have had chance to visit the school but if you haven’t we hope this presentation gives you an idea of what life is like at St. David’s High School and why we are so excited you are going to join us in September.

Making the move from Year 6 to Year 7 is an exciting time, with lots of changes to prepare for. This video has been created to help you and your child transition from Primary to Secondary education. Hope you enjoy it!
