Wyedean School and Sixth Form Centre

Welcome to our Year 6 to Year 7 transition page!

We are so looking forward to meeting our new year 7 students over the next three days. Regrettably we haven't been able to hold our usual welcome evening for families due to COVID restrictions. We know it isn't the same, but we hope that you are able to watch the videos below along with the PowerPoint from your child's Head of Year, Mrs Anna Jones. 

If you have any questions further to these videos, please contact Mrs Jones at JonesA@wyedeanschool.com.

We look forward to welcoming you to the start of your Secondary School journey.

Orientation and welcome from our Principal, Mrs Jeremiah
