Transition is an exciting but challenging time for children, especially in Year 6, when the majority will be moving schools, meeting new people, and building new friendships.
Most children will be looking forward to these changes and recognise them as part of growing up. However, like any change, transition brings a sense of uncertainty, and this can cause children to feel anxious. If transition is not carefully managed, these feelings can have a negative impact on wellbeing, achievement, and attendance.
This survey explores feelings and perceptions around the transition process for year 6 pupils.
