Year 7 September 2025
TRANSITION FROM PRIMARY TO SECONDARY SCHOOL CAN BE AN EXCITING TIME FOR MANY NEW STUDENTS.
The opportunity to experience new subjects, new activities and make new friends at a bigger school is often met with great enthusiasm.
At Spires Academy we understand that whilst most new students feel this way, some may feel nervous and anxious at the thought of starting at a new school. That is why we have developed our transition programme, to ensure all our new students feel supported in their transition process and that it goes as smoothly as possible.
