Induction Timetable 2025

We pride ourselves on our Year 6 induction programme which always ensures a positive start to school life at The Angmering School for all students. Below you will find information about the main activities which are part of the Transition Program:

Dates - 2025	Key Events
March 3	Email from County regarding allocated school place
March	Initial contact with feeder primary schools This will initially be focused on any individual students who may need an enhanced transition programme
March	Y6 Transition Data Collection Form We ask you to complete this to ensure a smooth transition, ensuring we can communicate with you and support your child's needs. It will take you approximately 10 minutes to complete. In this you can request a phone call from our safeguarding team to discuss any concerns you may have. We would like some feedback on language preferences so have included questions on this. A language will be studied until the end of Year 9. This survey is purely to give us an idea of preference and does not guarantee this is the language which will be allocated in Y7.
May	We will be in touch with a link to MCAS which is a platform which we use currently for information and academic reports throughout the school year. A separate email with instructions will be generated from MCAS which will be sent to your email address - after May half term.
May	Years 7 - 9 Guide is emailed to all parents.
