CONFIDENTLY STEPPING INTO SENIOR SCHOOL
“Transitus gave my child the chance to grow in confidence before Senior School - it made the transition feel natural.”
This hybrid year is the ideal stepping stone from Junior to Senior School. Pupils build their independence while still benefitting from dedicated support, helping them become ready for the challenges and opportunities of Senior School.
Confidence Through Core Skills
Increased time in Numeracy and Literacy to strengthen foundations. Seven periods of each per week with the base teacher and a further three periods per week with specialist English and Maths Teachers.
A dedicated base teacher offering guidance, support, and familiarity. The base teacher is a trained Primary specialist.
Familiar Junior School experiences are blended with the new challenges of Senior School. Transitus join Junior School for lunch and assembly two days per week and Senior School break, lunch, and assembly times three days a week.
Broadening horizons through early experience of subjects beyond the Junior classroom, setting strong foundations ahead of SQA exams. Lessons with specialist teachers in Maths, English, Languages, Sciences, Technologies, Expressive Arts, RME, and Health and Wellbeing.
Close links between the Base teacher and the Pastoral team ensure pupils’ wellbeing is carefully monitored and supported. Transitus also have a Health and Wellbeing programme, designed to develop strong and supportive relationships within the group.
