St Leonard's

New Intake Day is one of the first steps in the important relationship between St Leonard’s and the parents/carers of pupils who attend our school. We appreciate that the transition from primary school to secondary school can be an anxious time for parents/carers as well as the pupils themselves and we hope that the New Intake Day, along with the Year 6 Transition Evening for parents/carers and Summer School for our newest pupils, will help pupils to settle in and make new friends.   

New Intake Day is an opportunity for pupils to meet their new form tutors and the rest of their tutor groups, as well as many of the staff who will teach them and support them over the next five to seven years. It is also an opportunity for pupils to familiarise themselves with the layout and expectations of the school. 

We hope that New Intake Day is a positive experience for pupils and parents/carers alike, and to support parents/carers in the transition from primary to secondary we have produced a parental guide on the basics of St Leonard’s, which we hope you will find useful.
