One of the biggest challenges that any student faces during their academic career is the transfer from primary to secondary school. We are confident that we have an excellent transition programme to ensure that students settle in quickly and enjoy their first few weeks at St John Bosco College. This includes close relationships with our feeder primary schools; opportunities for students to visit the school, for instance to watch school productions, taster sessions or take part in the community clubs and classes; and an effective induction process to familiarise students and families with the school before and after their arrival.
Tuesday 2nd July: Incoming Year 7 Transition Day. Our new students will be spending the day at St John Bosco College to acquaint themselves with new friends and the school environment; 8.55am- 2.45pm. Students will receive a ‘Welcome to St John Bosco College’ full of key information and a suggested summer reading list.
Tuesday 9th July: Welcome Evening for Parents/Guardians, 5.30pm - 7.00pm, where you will meet key members of staff, have an opportunity to ask questions and learn how you can prepare your child for transition to secondary school, and meet our uniform suppliers and purchase uniform.
