SEN Transition

At  Beamish Primary School,  we recognise how important a successful transition is to our pupils with additional needs.

We work in partnership with our feeder secondary schools to provide an enhanced level of transition for those who we feel would benefit from this. This may take the form of additional visits for pupils, one to one / small group working with secondary school staff or pupil mentoring from secondary schools.

The period of transition depends on the individual needs of the pupil. If it is felt appropriate secondary school colleagues will attend Annual Reviews to meet the current class teacher, parents and most importantly the pupil. We have found this strategy particularly useful in easing any worries or concerns parents and pupils may have. We are particularly keen to involve parents/carers as much as possible in their child’s transition to secondary school.

Transition from each Year Group is supported so that the children have met with their new teachers and are familiar with the new classroom environment and organisation.

New starters for Reception children are provided with the following opportunities:

  • Parent Open Information Event
  • Children’s visits to Reception class in the Summer Term
  • Pupils and Parents invited for School Lunch

At the Beamish Primary, we have a flexible approach and additional visit opportunities or multi-agency meetings can be organised if required.

If you would like to discuss your SEND requirements in detail please contact the school  to arrange an appointment.
