Year 6 Transition

We understand that moving to secondary school can feel like a worrying time for parents and carers. At Aldersley, we pride ourselves on our extensive Transition Programme, designed to make this journey as smooth and positive as possible.

Hello and a very warm welcome to Aldersley High School!

I’m Mrs Barnshaw, the Transition Co-ordinator and Attainment and Standards Lead for Year 7 here at Aldersley High School. We are delighted that you have chosen Aldersley, where we believe in Ambition, Hard Work, and Success.

If you have applied for your child to join us in September 2026, you will receive your school allocation on 1st March 2026. Once your place is confirmed, we will send out a welcome pack and contact you via the email registered with the Local Authority.

The first date for your diary is our Afternoon Tea Event on Thursday 30th April – a fantastic opportunity to meet staff and other families. More details will follow closer to the time.

Any questions in the meantime please email me at: hbarnshaw@aatrust.co.uk

We look forward to welcoming you and your child to the Aldersley family and supporting you every step of the way.

Mrs Hannah Barnshaw
Transition Co-ordinator and ASL Year 7
