GENERAL INFORMATION FOR YEAR 6 PUPILS AND THEIR PARENTS/CARERS
Mrs Grashoff, Head of Lower School, has set up a Transition Twitter account to post updates – @MACSTransition with regular information and video updates from the staff at MACS.
Transition packs are sent out (usually using postal methods if they cannot be collected or passed on in person) and include the following:
- Transition information booklet
- Free School Meals application form
- Clothing grant form
- Data collection form
We would like to reassure families that Mrs Grashoff oversees a transition programme that provides several opportunities to learn more about MACS, to experience life at the school, and also to begin to form relationships that will be of benefit once the formal move to Year 7 has taken place. We do our very best to start to introduce Primary pupils to our school during Year 5, with experiences and events offered so that they can be familiarised with aspects of life at Secondary school.
We know you will be well supported and informed by your child’s Primary school during the transition process, however please do get in touch with Mrs Grashoff if you have any queries or require additional support, either by using the school contact number or by emailing grashoffj@hwbcymru.net.
