Moving from primary to secondary school is a really big step for most children and
their families.

The process can be overwhelming for some so it is really important that you
remember to think about everyone’s mental health and wellbeing throughout the
process.

It is important that you start the conversation as early as possible to help deal with
any questions or worries they may have.

Carefully manage expectations, don’t make promises that cannot be delivered.

Ask for any help and advice you need from your school early in the process.

Don’t set yourself up to fail by not following advice or naming unachievable
preferences.

                                                                                         Slid

To promote your child’s wellbeing and good mental health when discussing moving
from year 6 to year 7 parents/carers should talk about common concerns:

    Missing old friends and teachers: talk about making great new friends and the
     new teachers they will meet.

    Getting lost on the way to school and in school: complete practice runs, home to
     school journeys and request an actual or virtual guided tour of the school.

    Too much to learn: remind children they had loads to learn at primary school as
     well and they succeeded.

    Secondary schools are so big with so many children: remind children primary
     school seemed very big when they joined but that was soon ok.

       Emphasise secondary school will bring them big and fun opportunities   !

                                                                                        Slid
