Transition to Thomas Estley
When transferring from Key Stage 2 to Thomas Estley we liaise closely with the Primary Schools to ensure the transition is as supportive as possible. There is the opportunity for small group visits and our Inclusion fun days to introduce them to College life in an encouraging and caring way. We focus strongly on preparing our young.
