How is my child supported through transitions between year groups, key stages or settings?

The needs of all pupils in relation to transition will be very different and a personalised plan
will be developed to ensure that the transition will be as smooth as possible. This may
include:

• Meetings between existing class teacher and SENDCO and those in the new setting
• Additional visits for the child to his/her new setting
• New staff invited to meet the child in his/her current setting
• Opportunities for Parents/Carers to meet with new staff
• Learning opportunities linked to the new setting/staff e.g. opportunities for children

moving to high school to practice using timetables and preparing their own resources

• Multiagency meetings to ensure a joined-up transition plan is in place
• Sharing of information between the current and new setting
