JUNIOR SCHOOL TRIAL DAY INFORMATION
Pupils aged 6 – 10 wishing to enter the Junior School attend for a ‘Trial day’ during which they spend a day with their prospective new class. This gives them the opportunity to meet their new friends and teachers, and experience all the activities of the day, including using school transport or attending the ‘Twilight Zone’ if required!
Children will be given a school lunch, drinks and fruit snacks throughout the day,
During the day, the teacher will administer a short test in reading, English and mathematics which will be appropriate for the child’s age. We understand that very young children do not always achieve their best performance when in strange surroundings with people whom they do not know, so it is helpful if a report from a current school can be provided. A full reference will be requested from other schools if an application is made.
Staff and pupils alike make every effort to make visitors welcome, and our pupils are very good at looking after the ‘new boy or girl’ especially at playtimes and in the Dining Hall where life can be daunting when you are new!
