We at Halewood Academy understand that the transition from primary school to secondary school is a very important stage in a child’s education. Halewood Academy offers a comprehensive Transition Programme for all children joining the school. Our extensive programme comprises initial support towards the end of Year 6 and further support when students join us in September.
We are pleased to announce the launch of our transition video which will enable your son/daughter to have a small insight into life at Halewood Academy before they commence in September. Please click the video link below.
Transition Programme
For the attention of our new Year 7 students starting in September! Congratulations on being offered a place at Halewood Academy, you will be the largest year group that we have ever had. Please read the booklet as it will provide you with lots of important information about life at Halewood Academy.
As a school, we offer face-to-face transition meetings to each feeder school. These allow key members of our transition team to reassure and meet our new arrivals and importantly provide an opportunity for them to ask any questions they may have and any particular support each child needs or requires.
