We will be doing maintenance to our website systems on Sunday, 31 January. Despite the ongoing situation with Covid-19 it is essential that we maintain the security of our systems. This will help us continue to deliver vital public health messages and information about council services via our website and allow you all to access our services using online forms. The work should be done with little disruption to you and any interruption should be short. If you do have problems accessing the site or something doesn’t work on Sunday, please try again later.
Transition Day for 2023-2024 academic year will fall on Wednesday 3rd July.
Some excellent practice is used to support pupils transferring from primary to secondary school and we build on this by sharing additional information in respect of those pupils who are known to the City of Bradford MDC.
The LA provide the respective secondary schools with the following details of Year 6 pupils where they are known to the LA:
It is anticipated that this information will support existing arrangements in the preparation of a robust transition plan between the respective primary and secondary school.
In addition, our SENCO's contact allocated secondary schools to discuss other year 6 pupils who are vulnerable and may need additional transitional support or bespoke programmes to scaffold for their start in year 7 in their new secondary setting. Due to the unprecedented events and impact of the ongoing Covid 19 situation our primary schools recognise this is more important than ever.
The Primary and allocated Secondary School should arrange a review meeting following receipt of this information to allow information to be exchanged and transition plans to be drawn up. Template transition documents are below. The Transition Plan is the joint responsibility of primary schools and the receiving secondary school in conjunction with the child and their parents or carers.
