Over the coming months, the Secondary team are looking forward to getting to know the current Year 6 students as they navigate their way from Primary School to Year 7.
On Tuesday we hosted a Year 6 into 7 Progression Evening for parents. The event, led by Mr. Lowe and Mrs. Baker, provided further information about the Secondary School, and information included guidance about pastoral care, timetabling and expectations. A special thank you to our wonderful Year 7 helpers who spoke so eloquently and answered lots of questions about their experiences.
Following this evening, our Year 6 students will participate in our progression programme, which will take place over the coming months. We have several exciting workshops and activities planned, which will give our Year 6 students the chance to learn about the wonderful opportunities that will be offered to our Year 7 students next year.
It’s something I’ve believed for a long time — that learning isn’t predetermined by our genes. It’s about growing, persevering, and learning through the process. I was really mindful of this idea at this week’s wonderful Primary Summer Concert, after which I found myself reflecting on whether these amazing children have an innate talent, or whether they have achieved so much because of hard work and practice.
I believe it’s the latter. These children, their parents, and their teachers all seem to share the belief that by trying and working hard, they will get better at what they do. This is what we call a growth mindset.
