Introduction to Transitions
Transitions are key moments that can significantly influence a child or young person's educational journey and personal development. They serve as bridges between different educational stages, such as moving from early childhood settings to primary school, or from primary to secondary education.
Effective transitions can help children and young people adapt to new environments, expectations, and learning styles. They can provide continuity in learning and support emotional well-being, which is essential in supporting children and young people to feel secure and ready to embrace new challenges. High-quality, effective transitions are underpinned by careful planning, communication, and support, helping children and young people to Flourish.
